Abstract
Background: Fn14 is a highly inducible member of the TNF receptor family. Results: Large-magnitude mechanical stress induced Fn14 expression via JNK in osteoblasts. Conclusion: Expression of Fn14 regulates mechanical stress-induced apoptosis in osteoblasts. Significance: This is the first elucidation of the mechanism of excessive mechanical stress-induced apoptosis mediated by Fn14.
