Cheng H, Huang Y*, Chen W, Che J, Liu T, Na J, Wang R, Fan Y*. Cyclic strain and electrical co-stimulation improve neural differentiation of marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells. Front Cell Dev Biol 2021;9:624755. (Q1, IF2019=5.186)
The current study investigated the combinatorial effect of cyclic strain and electrical stimulation on neural differentiation potential of rat bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) under epidermal growth factor (EGF) and fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2) inductions in vitro. We developed a prototype device which can provide cyclic strain and electrical signal synchronously. Using t...
