Mechanical strain impaired gene expression of certain cementogenesis-related biomarkers. a-f The relative mRNA levels of BSP, ALP, OCN, OPN, Runx2 and Osx in OCCM-30 cells in the presence or absence of 18 h mechanical strain. Total RNA was subjected to qPCR. Relative mRNA expression levels were normalized to GAPDH as an endogenous reference. The experiments were repeated 3 times. Bars represent means ± SD. * p < 0.05
