The potential role of mechanosensitive ion channels in substrate stiffness-regulated Ca < sup > 2+ < /sup > response in chondrocytes

CONCLUSIONS: Collectively, these findings indicate that chondrocytes might perceive and distinguish the different PCM stiffness by using different mechanosensitive ion channels.PMID:34814790 | DOI:10.1080/03008207.2021.2007902
