Fig. 4From: Regulation of the integrin αVβ3- actin filaments axis in early osteogenic differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells under cyclic tensile stressActin filaments regulated early stage of osteogenic differentiation induced by CTS via integrin αVβ3 activation in MSCs. a Protein and mRNA expression of β-actin under CTS for 4 and 7 days. b Protein and mRNA expression of β-actin under CTS in the CTS and RGDyk groups. c Immunofluorescence of F-actin under CTS in the GM, CTS, and RGDyk groups for 7 days. Scale bar, 20 μm. d Protein expression of ALP and RUNX2 under CTS in the GM and CytoD groups. (Symbol meaning in each statistical graph: Vertical Lines represents the average of three groups of data; Error Bars represents standard deviation; * represents P < 0.05, ** represents P < 0.01. All statistical analyses were performed between the experimental group and control group.)Back to article page
