Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) has been reported to enhance proliferation and alter protein production in various types of cells. In this study, we detected the effects of LIPUS on Schwann cells. %K Schwann cell %K Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound %K Cyclin D1 %K GSK-3¦Â/¦Â-catenin signaling pathway %U http://www.ijbs.com/v14p0497.htm
