In situ osteogenic activation of mesenchymal stem cells by the blood clot biomimetic mechanical microenvironment

Abstract Blood clots (BCs) play a crucial biomechanical role in promoting osteogenesis and regulating mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) function and fate. This study shows that BC formation enhances MSC osteogenesis by activating Itgb1/Fak-mediated focal adhesion and subsequent Runx2-mediated bone regener...
