Osteocyte differentiation is regulated by extracellular matrix stiffness and intercellular separation
(Elsevier, 2013-07-18)
Osteocytes are terminally differentiated bone cells, derived from
osteoblasts, which are vital for regulation of bone formation and resorption. ECM stiffness and cell seeding
density have been shown to regulate osteoblast ...
Fluid flow in the osteocyte mechanical environment: a fluid-structure interaction approach
(Springer Verlag, 2013-04-09)
Osteocytes are believed to be the primary sensor of mechanical stimuli in bone, which orchestrate osteoblasts and osteoclasts to adapt bone structure and composition to meet physiological loading demands. Experimental ...
