“…We focused on the effects of ESWT on the adhesion and migration of osteoblasts while aiming to reveal the underlying specific biochemical signals triggered by ESW. Different shock waves could induce different outcomes (15,32). In our experiments, dose-dependent complications were observed, and it was determined that optimal intensity of energy was 500 impulses at 10 kV.…”

“…Because the physical forces generated by cavitation are highly localized, SW could induce localized stress and subsequent shear stress on cell surface membranes (Fisher et al 2001). Several biochemical effects of SW were reported including hyperpolarization, Ras activation, non-enzymatic NO synthesis, and induction of stress fibers and intercellular gaps (Seidl et al 1994;Wang et al 2001;Gotte et al 2002). Also, SW treatment is reported to affect the expression of several chemokines and matrix metalloproteinases and therefore bring anti-inflamatory effects Mariotto et al 2005;Stojadinovic et al 2008;Mariotto et al 2009) in addition to up-regulation of VEGF and its receptor Flt-1 (Nishida et al 2004), implying that the multiple angiogenic pathways are involved in the beneficial effects of the SW therapy.…”

“…Enhanced cellular proliferation and regeneration by proliferating cell nuclear antibody (PCNA) and insulin-like growth factor (IGF-I) were demonstrated after ESWA of rat Achilles tendons [8]. Furthermore ESWA has been shown to exert a significant synergistic growth inhibitory effect on tumour cells when applied in combination with chemotherapeutic agents [9,10], which was explained by CP-induced permeabilization of cellular membranes and intercellular connections [11,12]. Recent investigations revealed decreased leukocytic infiltration and suppression of tumour necrosis factor a (TNF-a) in critically perfused random skin flaps after ESWA [13].…”
