Molecular Markers of Early Orthodontic Tooth Movement

Abstract: Objective: To understand the molecular basis of early orthodontic tooth movement by looking at the expression of KI-67, runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2), and tumor necrosis factor ligand superfamily member 11 (RANKL) proteins. Materials and Methods:We employed a rat model of early orthodontic tooth movement using a split-mouth design (where contralateral side serves as a control) and performed immunohistochemical staining to map the spatial expression patterns of three proteins at 3 and 24 hours aft… Show more

“…This is consistent with reports from Yoshimatsu et al 15) and from In the agreement with these results, previous reports described elevated levels of TNF-α and RANKL in compression side following mechanical loading [18][19][20][21] . Given that the TNF-α and RANKL participate in osteoclastogenesis by upregulating osteoclast activity.…”

“…These abrupt alterations lead to the generation and propagation of signaling cascades and associated tissue remodeling by delineating biochemical and cellular reactions occurring in mineralized (alveolar bone) and nonmineralized (periodontium) paradental tissues ( Figure 2). Several possible biomarkers representing these biological modifications are expressed during specific phenomena, that is, simileinflammatory process, bone resorption and formation, periodontal ligament changes, and vascular and neural responses [1].…”

“…For the second part of the study, the PDL of the experimental and control first maxillary molars was extracted and frozen at 280uC until RNA extraction. No distinction was made between the mesial and distal surfaces of each tooth because it was technically unfeasible due to the small size of murine molars and also, as previously shown by us, 10 areas of compression occur in both mesial and distal regions of the PDL during force application.…”
