Research Abstract |
Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) stimulation, given as one of the mechanisms of osteoclast activity in rats is considered effects on the cytoskeleton. From the cytoskeleton and inhibit polymerization LIPUS stimulation. As a result, to re-polymerization of the cytoskeleton, LIPUS irradiated group was to promote the early re-polymerization than the non-irradiated group. This, LIPUS have shown that the morphological changes involved in cell stimulation, suggesting an association with mechanical stress. However, LIPUS that acts on any part of the cytoskeleton polymerization re-irradiation should be considered.
