Background Whole-body vibration has been suggested for the prevention of muscle mass
loss and muscle wasting as an attractive measure for disuse atrophy. This study examined …

Background: Patients with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) have abnormal bone modelling and
resorption. The bone tissue adaptation and responsivity to dynamic and mechanical loading …

Low-magnitude, high-frequency vibration has stimulated osteogenesis in mesenchymal
stem cells when these cells were cultured in certain types of three-dimensional …

Exercise in general, and mechanical signals in particular, help ameliorate the
neuromuscular symptoms of aging and possibly other neurodegenerative disorders by …

Skeletal muscle exercise regulates several important metabolic genes in humans. We know
little about the effects of environmental stress (heat) and mechanical stress (vibration) on …

Abstract Oosthuyse, T, Viedge, A, McVeigh, J, and Avidon, I. Anaerobic power in road
cyclists is improved after 10 weeks of whole-body vibration training. J Strength Cond Res 27 …

Introduction: Myosin IXB (MYO9B) is an unconventional myosin with RhoGAP activity and
thus is a regulator of actin cytoskeletal organization. MYO9B was previously shown to be …

Mechanical loading has stimulating effects on bone architecture, which can potentially be
used as a therapy for osteoporosis. We investigated the skeletal changes in the tibia of …

Whole Body Vibration (WBV) is becoming increasingly popular for helping to maintain bone
mass and strengthening muscle. Vibration regimens optimized for bone maintenance often …

Whole body vibration (WBV) has been extensively studied as an anabolic stimulus for bone
and muscle. Therapeutic WBV delivers low magnitude, high frequency vibrations to tissues …
