Microfluidic 3D Osteocyte Network Reconstructured With Microbeads As Scaffold
Background: Mature osteocytes embedded in the three-dimensional lacuna-canalicular network (3D-LCN) structure are known to sense local compressive strain and initiate strain-dependent new bone formation by osteoblasts, utilizing cytokines such as sclerostin and Dkk1 expressed by the osteocytes as major signaling molecules. Studying these osteocytes...
