MSCs sensed μRB stiffness similarly within the range tested, but increased stiffness accelerated activation of mature osteogenic genes as measured by qRT-PCR. Gene expression for mechanosensing genes RhoA and ROCK1 and osteogenic markers RUNX2, ALP, Col I, and ON were analyzed on day 14. * = p < 0.05.
