Description
Summary:"Bone Cell Biomechanics, Mechanobiology and Bone Diseases provides a comprehensive overview of recent knowledge and advances regarding bone cell biomechanics and related bone diseases, highlighting the cellular basis for bone responding to mechanical stimuli. The book provides a general overview of bone cell biology, and sets out the most recent advances of bone cell biomechanics and mechanobiology. It describes the relationship between bone cell biomechanics and bone diseases, as well as the underlying mechanism, and new technologies for bone diseases study. This information will enable better understanding of the role of mechanobiology in both bone health and bone diseases as well as aiding the investigation of novel strategies for diagnosis and therapy of bone diseases. The Cells discussed in this book include bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BM-MSC), osteoblast, osteoclast, osteocyte, and chondrocyte. The bone diseases covered are osteoporosis, scoliosis and osteoarthritis. This comprehensive reference is written for researchers, scientists, clinicians, and students."--Back cover.
