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 ... -
Strain amplification in bone mechanobiology: a computational investigation of the in vivo mechanics of osteocytes
(The Royal Society Publishing, 2012-06-06)The osteocyte is believed to act as the main sensor of mechanical stimulus in bone, controlling signalling for bone growth and resorption in response to changes in the mechanical demands placed on our bones throughout life. ...
