Intercellular propagation of signal induced by mechanical stimulation of a single bone cell

Mechanical loading inhibits bone resorption by osteoclasts and stimulates bone formation by osteoblasts. We examined the mechanotransduction among bone cells. We generated osteoclasts and osteoblasts from mouse bone marrow, RAW 264.7 and MC3T3-E1 cells. Single cell was mechanically stimulated and ch...
