HDFs were cultured for 24 hrs for adhesion and to reach 50-70% confluence before mechanical tension was applied. Cyclic mechanical stretch (CMS) with a 0.5-Hz sinusoidal curve at 10-20% elongation was applied using a Flexcell○RFX-5000TM Tension System during the stretching. Cells were harvested imme...
