| Abstract | Quantitative Ultrasound (QUS) is a promising technique for bone tissue evaluation. Focused transducers used for QUS also have a capability to be applied for tissue-regenerative purposes and can provide spatially limited deposition of acoustic energy. We describe a focused LIPUS (FLIPUS) system, which has been developed for the stimulation of cell monolayers in the defocused far field of the transducer through the bottom of the well plate. Tissue culture well plates, carrying the cells, were incubated in a special chamber, immersed in a temperature controlled water tank. The ultrasound was introduced at 3.6 MHz, pulsed at 100 Hz repetition frequency with 27.8% duty cycle. The calibrated output intensity corresponded to ISATA = 44.5 ± 7.1 $mW/cm^{2}.$ In this study we evaluated mechanical response of murine C2C12 myoblastic cells to ultrasound. FLIPUS induced 1.5 fold increase (p<;0.05) in AP-1 promoter activity already after 5-minute of FLIPUS exposure. The Sp1 binding was enhanced by about 20% (p<;0.05) after 5-min FLIPUS stimulation and the trend persisted for 30 min (p<;0.01) and 1 hour (p<;0.01) stimulation times. Increase of 70% in activation of TEAD-binding sequences (p<;0.01) was observed after the 5 min FLIPUS treatment. The proliferation of the C2C12 cells was up-regulated after the 5-minlong FLIPUS exposure. These results imply the pro-proliferative nature of the selected FLIPUS-intensity in C2C12s, with potential functional role of the described mechanosensitive transcription factors. The use of FLIPUS as a visualization and regenerative technique can be further applied in clinical settings as a device providing monitoring and healing of the damaged tissue. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
