In this context, it is worth mentioning that the mechanisms of mechanical loading on the aging skeleton are still not fully understood.
The purpose of this study was to better understand the mechanisms underlying CIM, and to evaluate the effects of passive mechanical loading on muscle structure and function in sedated and mechanically ventilated ICU patients.
In the same year, Shimko and Claycomb [ 51] used a bioreactor where ring-shaped constructs were stretched via a computer-controlled mechanism to explore the effects of long-term mechanical loading on mouse ESCs-derived cardiomyocytes.
We have further performed long-term experiments to investigate the effects of biaxial mechanical loading on cartilage neotissue formation.
Our study is the first to examine the effect of mechanical loading on Wnt signaling under sclerostin ablation.
Mechanical loading on the bone is sensed by osteocytes.
Radiographic analysis of mineralization in the callus at the 42-day time point demonstrated an impact of the mechanical loading on the healing response.
