Epub 2007 Sep 25. Note: From summary in paper: "In summary, our theoretical model shows that integrin-based attachment complexes along osteocyte cell processes would dramatically and focally amplify small tissue-level strains. Given the increasing evidence that integrins play a central role in cation channel regulation, it seems reasonable to speculate that high focal strain concentrations at these attachment sites play a direct role in osteocyte mechanotransduction."
