The effect of substrate stiffness, thickness, and cross-linking density on osteogenic cell behavior
(Biophysical Society, 2015-04-07)
Osteogenic cells respond to mechanical changes in their environment by altering their spread area, morphology, and gene expression profile. In particular, the bulk modulus of the substrate, as well as its microstructure ...
Differential β3 and β1 integrin expression in bone marrow and cortical bone of estrogen deficient rats
(Wiley, 2015-08-12)
Integrin-based (beta(3)) attachments to the extracellular matrix (ECM) on osteocyte cell processes have recently been proposed to play an important role in facilitating osteocyte mechanosensation. However, it is not yet ...
