Abstract
► MPO binds to and mediates HOCl-dependent oxidation of the subendothelial matrix. ► HOCl-mediated matrix oxidation disrupts cell-matrix contacts, inducing de-adhesion. ► De-adhesion is driven by unopposed actomyosin contractile forces. ► De-adhesion is linked with rapid changes in adhesion-dependent signaling. ► MPO alters endothelial integrity and signaling by HOCl-mediated matrix oxidation.
