The induction of autophagy by mechanical stress [PDF]

open access: yesAutophagy, 2011
The ability to respond and adapt to changes in the physical environment is a universal and essential cellular property. Here we demonstrated that cells respond to mechanical compressive stress by rapidly inducing autophagosome formation. We measured this response in both Dictyostelium and mammalian cells, indicating that this is an evolutionarily ...

Mechanical stress abnormalities promote chondrocyte senescence - The pathogenesis of knee osteoarthritis.

open access: yesBiomedicine & pharmacotherapy = Biomedecine & pharmacotherapie, 2023
Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a common chronic disease in orthopedics, which brings great pain to patients' life and spirit. Therefore, it is necessary to elucidate the pathogenesis of KOA.

Excessive mechanical stress-induced intervertebral disc degeneration is related to Piezo1 overexpression triggering the imbalance of autophagy/apoptosis in human nucleus pulpous

open access: yesArthritis Research & Therapy, 2022
Background Mechanical stress plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD). The mechanosensitive Piezo1 ion channel can sense the changes in mechanical stress and convert the mechanical signals into chemical signals.

Effects of Mechanical Stress Stimulation on Function and Expression Mechanism of Osteoblasts

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Osteoclasts and osteoblasts play a major role in bone tissue homeostasis. The homeostasis and integrity of bone tissue are maintained by ensuring a balance between osteoclastic and osteogenic activities.

Mechanical stress determines the configuration of TGFβ activation in articular cartilage

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Our incomplete understanding of osteoarthritis (OA) pathogenesis has significantly hindered the development of disease-modifying therapy. The functional relationship between subchondral bone (SB) and articular cartilage (AC) is unclear.

Mechanical stress driven by rigidity sensing governs epithelial stability

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2022
On soft substrates, epithelial tissues are under high tension and form holes that spontaneously heal. Thus, mechanical stress directly impacts the integrity of epithelia. Epithelia act as barriers against environmental stresses.

Mechanisms of stress in the brain [PDF]

open access: yesNature Neuroscience, 2015
The brain is the central organ involved in perceiving and adapting to social and physical stressors via multiple interacting mediators, from the cell surface to the cytoskeleton to epigenetic regulation and nongenomic mechanisms. A key result of stress is structural remodeling of neural architecture, which may be a sign of successful adaptation ...
