Expression of mRNA and protein levels of the osteoblastic markers in hPDLCs after different dynamic cyclic stress loading for 5 days. a Real-time PCR results of osteoblastic markers ALP, COL-1, RUNX-2, OCN, OPN and OSX mRNA expression in hPDLCs after different cyclic stress loading for 5 days with LPS or not. b Western blotting analysis for COL-1 and RUNX-2 using total protein isolated from different groups of hPDLCs. c Quantification of Western blotting analysis. Protein content was expressed relative to the control and represented three similar independent experiments with triplicate observations in each experiment. Data were represented as means ± SEM, n = 6 (hPDLCs from six donors). The bars with different lowercase letters were significantly different from each other (P < 0.05), and those with the same letter exhibited no significant difference
