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 ... -
Effects of in vitro endochondral priming and pre-vascularisation of human MSC cellular aggregates in vivo
(2015)Introduction: During endochondral ossification, both the production of a cartilage template and the subsequent vascularisation of that template are essential precursors to bone tissue formation. Recent studies have found ... -
Primary cilia exist in a small fraction of cells in trabecular bone and marrow
(Springer, 2014-11-15)Primary cilia are potent mechanical and chemical sensory organelles in cells of bone lineage in tissue culture. Cell culture experiments suggest that primary cilia sense fluid flow and this stimulus is translated through ...
