Specifically, models that support three-dimensional (3D) cell culture and mechanical stimulation are needed, as both factors significantly influence cell behavior and, consequently, the success of TMDs treatments. We designed a novel 3D\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">in vitro<\/jats:italic>\n                    model using cells subjected to dynamic moderate loading (simulating chewing) or constant excessive loading (simulating clenching) applicable as an\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">in\u00a0vivo<\/jats:italic>\n                    -mimetic system for TMDs research. In this study, cylindrical constructs (diameter: 6 mm, height: 3 mm), composed of 3% agarose containing mouse bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs), were cultured in chondrogenic medium. Cells in these constructs exhibited a 3.0-fold increase in\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Sox9<\/jats:italic>\n                    RNA expression compared to cells inside agarose constructs cultured in proliferation medium and a 2.5-fold increase compared to micromass cultures (golden standard). After confirming the chondrogenic potential, we subjected the cell-agarose constructs to dynamic and constant mechanical loading using a custom-designed bioreactor. The constructs were divided into five groups: unloaded controls, dynamic loading (5% compression at 1 Hz), and constant loading at 10%, 20%, and 30% compression for 20 min per day. Finite element modeling analysis revealed that by increasing the strain compression level, the uniformity of displacement and von Mises stress distribution within the hydrogel will be reduced. Moreover, 30% constant loading compromised the structural integrity of the agarose constructs. Nitric oxide production by BMSCs was significantly elevated in response to 5% dynamic loading (2.8-fold), 20% constant loading (2.7-fold), and 30% constant loading (2.4-fold) after 20 min of stimulation compared to controls. Furthermore, 5% dynamic loading significantly upregulated\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">c-Fos<\/jats:italic>\n                    (2.0-fold) and\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">c-Jun<\/jats:italic>\n                    (1.5-fold) gene expression relative to controls, while 10% and 20% constant loading also significantly increased\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">c-Jun<\/jats:italic>\n                    expression (1.5-fold and 1.6-fold, respectively).
