Figure 8From: Mechanical strain modulates age-related changes in the proliferation and differentiation of mouse adipose-derived stromal cellsComparison of the effect of pre-strain (PS) or simultaneous strain and adipogenic induction (AS). The levels of AP2 and PPARγ were normalized to β-actin and compared to the levels in NS groups that were induced for 14 days. Simultaneous strain applied during adipogenic induction was more effective at reducing adipogenic potential in ADSCs. *: P < 0.05, compared to 1. N = 3.Back to article page
