Effects on osteoblast and adipocyte differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stimulated by pulsed electromagnetic fields / 中华物理医学与康复杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the effects of pulsed electromagnetic fields(PEMFs)of 15Hz and lmT on osteoblast differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.Methods The bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were isolated and cultured in vitro,the third passage cells were harvested and half of them was exposed to PEMFs,another half exposed to sham PEMFs served as the control.The activity of ALP was measured.And the ex- pression of osteoblast and adipogenesis was measured with the semi-quantitative RT-PCR,adipogenic differentiation was observed with the Oil Red O Staining.Results When compared with the control,PEMFs of 15 Hz and 1 mT significantly increased the activity of ALP(P
