An early response to mechanical stimulation of bone cells in vitro is an increase in intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+](i)). This study analyzed the [Ca2+](i) wave area, magnitude, duration, rise time, fall time, and time to onset in individual osteoblasts for two identical bouts of mechanical stimulation separated by a 30-min rest period. The area under the [Ca2+](i) wave increased in the second loading bout compared to the first. This suggests that rest periods may potentiate mechanically induced intracellular calcium signals. Furthermore, many of the [Ca2+](i) wave parameters were strongly positively correlated between the two bouts of mechanical stimulation. For example, in individual primary osteoblasts, if a cell had a large [Ca2+](i) wave area in the first bout it was likely to have a large [Ca2+](i) wave area in the second bout (r(2) = 0.933). These findings support the idea that individual bone cells have "calcium fingerprints" (i.e., a unique [Ca2+](i) wave profile that is reproducible for repeated exposure to a given stimulus).
