| Call Number | 611/.018 |
| Title | Biomechanics and cells / edited by F. Lyall, A.J. El Haj. Biomechanics & Cells |
| Physical Description | 1 online resource (xii, 275 pages) : digital, PDF file(s). |
| Series | Society for Experimental Biology seminar series ; 54 |
| Notes | Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 05 Oct 2015). |
| Contents | Cellular modelling of mechanical interactions with the skeleton / A.J. El Haj and G.P. Thomas -- Mechanical and hormonal influences in vivo cause regional differences in bone remodelling / T.M. Skerry and B.F. Fermor -- Mechanically sensitive cells in bone / L.E. Lanyon -- Mechanical stress and bone development / E.H. Burger, J. Klein-Nulend and J.P. Veldhuijzen -- Application of homogenous, defined strains to cell cultures / D.B. Jones, G. Leivseth, Y. Sawada, J. van der Sloten and D. Bingmann -- Role of arachidonate in load transduction in bone cells / I. Binderman -- Effects of mechanical stretch on actin polymerisation in fibroblasts of the periodontium / N. Pender and C.A.G. McCulloch -- Modulation of cartilage extracellular matrix turnover by pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF) / J.A. Bee, H.-X. Liu, N. Clarke and J. Abbott. |
| Summary | Although the effects of exercise and mechanical forces on musculoskeletal and cardiovascular systems have been well documented, the actual mechanisms by which mechanical forces act at the cellular level are not well understood. At present, studies of the interaction of mechanical forces with cells encompass many different cell types in various tissues. This volume draws together these apparently disparate observations and makes comparisons between the nature of cellular responses in different tissues. Studies of cells derived from skeletal muscle, bone and cardiovascular tissue are considered to provide a comprehensive synthesis and review of recent work. The volume will be of interest to all those working in musculoskeletal and cardiovascular biology, as well as those taking courses in exercise and sport science, biomechanics and orthopaedics. |
