Dynamic Reorientation of Cultured Cells and Stress Fibers under Mechanical Stress from Periodic Stretching

open access: closedExperimental Cell Research, 2001
Cell lines derived from rat aorta and frog kidney were cultured on elastic membrane, and mechanical stress was given to the cells by stretching the membrane periodically. Cell reorientation oblique to the direction of stretching occurred as a result of the rapid withdrawal of cell periphery located along the direction of stretching and gradual ...

The influence of periodic mechanical stresses on the incommensurate phase of quartz

open access: closedPhysica B: Condensed Matter, 1997
Abstract The kinetics of the stress-induced transition from the β- to the incommensurate phase in quartz has been investigated by time-resolved triple-axis spectroscopy. It is shown that the formation of the modulated phase under external load takes a longer time than the removal of the modulation if the stress is released.

A novel role for integrin‐linked kinase in periodic mechanical stress‐mediated ERK1/2 mitogenic signaling in rat chondrocytes

open access: closedCell Biology International, 2016
AbstractIn recent years, a variety of studies have been performed to investigate the cellular responses of periodic mechanical stress on chondrocytes. Integrin β1‐mediated ERK1/2 activation was proven to be indispensable in periodic mechanical stress‐induced chondrocyte proliferation and matrix synthesis.

Periodic mechanical stress activates EGFR-dependent Rac1 mitogenic signals in rat nucleus pulpous cells via ERK1/2

open access: closedBiochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2015
The mitogenic effects of periodic mechanical stress on nucleus pulpous cells have been studied extensively but the mechanisms whereby nucleus pulpous cells sense and respond to mechanical stimulation remain a matter of debate. We explored this question by performing cell culture experiments in our self-developed periodic stress field and perfusion ...

Synergetic effect of topological cue and periodic mechanical tension-stress on osteogenic differentiation of rat bone mesenchymal stem cells

open access: closedColloids and Surfaces B: Biointerfaces, 2017
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are able to self-renew and differentiate into tissues of mesenchymal origin, making them to be significant for cell-based therapies, such as metabolic bone diseases and bone repair. Regulating the differentiation of MSCs is significant for bone regeneration.
