Cyclic tensile stress promotes osteogenic differentiation of adipose stem cells via ERK and p38 pathways

The present study aimed to elucidate whether extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1/2 (ERK1/2) and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinases pathways participate in the transduction of mechanical stretch exerted on adipose stem cells (ASCs) into intracellular osteogenic signals, and if so whether both...
