The Response of Preosteoblasts to Combined Shear and Thermal Stress for Bone Tissue Engineering
Due to the fact that bone cells are highly responsive to mechanical stimuli, shear stress has been extensively studied for its ability to enhance osteogenic differentiation through mechanotransduction. In addition, thermal stress has also been explored as a conditioning method to stimulate cellular...
