Utah FORGE: Phase 2C Seismic Observation and Ground Water Well Data and Well Locations

This submission contains the following data associated with Utah FORGE Phase 2C within the Roosevelt Hot Springs geothermal area: - An ArcGIS shapefile with well locations for wells 58-32, 78-32, 68-32, OH-3, OH-4, WOW-2, and WOW-3. Well 58-32 is the deep test well, wells 68-32 and 78-32 are seismic test wells, and the OH and WOW wells were used for ground water monitoring and temperature gradient logging. - Drilling reports, lithologic logs, daily drilling reports, cuttings logs, and drilling photos for seismic monitoring wells 78-32 and 68-32. - Raw and post-processing temperature logs for wells OH-3, OH-4, WOW-2, and WOW-4. The archive also includes a README.txt file, which contains an explanation of the data and how it was acquired, and a text file with coordinates for the logged wells.

Utah FORGE: Observation Well Data

This archive contains temperature data for Roosevelt Hot Springs observation wells OH-1, OH-4, OH-5 and OH-7. There are also mud logs for OH-4. These are old datasets obtained from Rocky Mountain Power for use in the Utah FORGE project. Temperature data were collected in the 1970s and 1980s.

Human osteoblast-like cells respond to mechanical strain with increased bone matrix protein production independent of hormonal regulation

Exposure of osteosarcoma cell lines to chronic intermittent strain increases the activity of mechano-sensitive cation (SA-cat) channels. The impact of mechano-transduction on osteoblast function has not been well studied. We analyzed the expression and production of bone matrix proteins in human osteoblast-like osteosarcoma cells, OHS-4, in response to chronic intermittent mechanical strain. The OHS-4 cells exhibit type I collagen production, 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D-inducible osteocalcin, and mineralization of the extracellular matrix. The matrix protein message level was determined from total RNA isolated from cells exposed to 1-4 days of chronic intermittent strain. Northern analysis for type I collagen indicated that strain increased collagen message after 48 h. Immunofluorescent labeling of type I collagen demonstrated that secretion was also enhanced with mechanical strain. Osteopontin message levels were increased several-fold by the application of mechanical load in the absence of vitamin D, and the two stimuli together produced an additive effect. Osteocalcin secretion was also increased with cyclic strain. Osteocalcin levels were not detectable in vitamin D-untreated control cells. However, after 4 days of induced load, significant levels of osteocalcin were observed in the medium. With vitamin D present, osteocalcin levels were 4 times higher in the medium of strained cells compared to nonstrained controls. We conclude that mechanical strain of osteoblast-like cells is sufficient to increase the transcription and secretion of matrix proteins via mechano-transduction without hormonal induction.
