Fluid Flow Induction of Cyclo‐Oxygenase 2 Gene Expression in Osteoblasts Is Dependent on an Extracellular Signal‐Regulated Kinase Signaling Pathway

Mechanical loading of bone may be transmitted to osteocytes and osteoblasts via shear stresses at cell surfaces generated by the flow of interstitial fluid. The stimulated production of prostaglandins, which mediates some effects of mechanical loading on bone, is dependent on inducible cyclo‐oxygena...
