Differential Response of Adult and Embryonic Mesenchymal Progenitor Cells to Mechanical Compression in Hydrogels
16 Aug 2007
Abstract excerpt
Cells in the musculoskeletal system can respond to mechanical stimuli, supporting tissue homeostasis and remodeling. Recent studies have suggested that mechanical stimulation also influences the differentiation of MSCs, whereas the effect on embryonic cells is still largely unknown. In this study, we evaluated the influence of dynamic mechanical compression on chondrogenesis of bone marrow-derived MSCs and...
