Research Abstract |
We can stimulate bone formation with tensile stress on a suture of mouse calvaria. Gene expressions of many factors, especially Wnt/beta-catenin family which are involved in bone-cell activity were examined during the stimulated bone formation. We could show the relative expression ratios of some factors at each time point of the experiment. Those results suggested which factors were more important at each stage of the stimulated bone formation.
