Stimulation of cells by low-intensity ultrasound activates mechanoreceptors including integrins and Piezo1. The subsequent phosphorylation of signaling proteins activates diverse pathways such as Rho/ROCK/ERK/MAPK and PI3K/Akt/mTOR, which ultimately govern different cellular responses including cell proliferation, viability, adhesion, migration or differentiation.
