Mechano-immune interactions in musculoskeletal aging: Mechanisms and translational perspectives
Mechano-immunology is an interdisciplinary field that examines how mechanical forces—including endogenous tissue stresses and exogenous stimuli—modulate immune cell function in the maintenance of homeostasis and the progression of disease. As the primary load-bearing framework of the body, the musculoskeletal system depends on coordinated mechanical loading to sustain immune balance and tissue repair. With aging, reduced physical activity, ...
