Prolonged mechanical stretch initiates intracellular calcium oscillations in human mesenchymal stem cells.
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are a promising candidate for cell-based therapy in regenerative medicine. These stem cells can interact with their mechanical microenvironment to control their functions. External mechanical cues can be perceived and transmitted into intracellular calcium dynamics to r...
