Abstract
⺠We developed a real-time Ca2 + imaging system to capture an early signaling event in mechanotransduction in bone. ⺠Osteoblasts and osteocytes displayed flow-activated intracellular Ca2 + oscillations. ⺠Gap junction-mediated cell-cell communication plays an important role in regulating these responses.
