Optogenetic activation of mechanical nociceptions to enhance implant osseointegration

Abstract Orthopedic implants with high elastic modulus often suffer from poor osseointegration due to stress shielding, a phenomenon that suppresses the expression of intracellular mechanotransduction molecules (IMM) such as focal adhesion kinase (FAK). We find that reduced FAK expression under stre...
