Application of low intensity mechanical vibrations for bone tissue maintenance and regeneration

Abstract: Increasing bone mass through mechanical loads is an important biomedical aim, as these loads are natural and omnipresent for biological structures and they are nonpharmaceutical in nature. For this aim to be achieved, however, individuals need to integrate planned physical activity into their daily routine. Unfortunately, that integration may not always be viable as individual compliance becomes an important hindrance (Mayoux

“…Regeneration of a healthy bone tissue is regulated by chemical and mechanical cues as well as spatial factors and occurs free of scar formation [17,32,35]. However, if the defect size is large, it is considered as Bcritical size bone defect,^and it cannot be healed naturally [14].…”

“…24,25 In addition to these loading variants, daily application of low-intensity (<0.5 g, 1 g = 9.81 m/s 2 ) vibrations (LIVs) in high frequencies (>30 Hz) is anabolic to bone tissue and can suppress obesity in murine and clinical studies. 2628 LIV can also help maintaining a healthy bone marrow during conditions that are detrimental to bone marrow, such as mechanical disuse 29 or diet-induced obesity. 30 On cellular level, LIV acts as pro-osteogenic to bone marrow stem cells and influences their proliferation, morphology, cell-to-cell communication and molecular markers in vitro 3133 but cells of other developmental origins, such as epithelial cells, appear to be less sensitive to LIV signals.…”
