Differentiating zones at periodontal ligament–bone and periodontal ligament–cementum entheses [PDF]

Journal of Periodontal Research, 2015
Background and ObjectiveThe structural and functional integrity of bone–periodontal ligament (PDL)–cementum complex stems from the load‐bearing attachment sites (entheses) between soft (PDL) and hard (bone, cementum) tissues. These attachment sites are responsible for the maintenance of a bone–PDL–cementum complex biomechanical function.

Periodontal Inflammation-Triggered by Periodontal Ligament Stem Cell Pyroptosis Exacerbates Periodontitis [PDF]

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Periodontitis is an immune inflammatory disease that leads to progressive destruction of bone and connective tissue, accompanied by the dysfunction and even loss of periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs). Pyroptosis mediated by gasdermin-D (GSDMD) participates in the pathogenesis of inflammatory diseases.

Importance of periodontal ligament thickness [PDF]

Brazilian Oral Research, 2013
This study evaluated whether periodontal ligament (PL) thickness varied with root size and examined the possible influence of this variation on orthodontic mechanics. Measurements were taken of the maxillary left first molar in 54 male Wistar rats. Mean mesial and distal PL thicknesses were compared between the intermediate buccal and mesiobuccal roots

Periodontal Ligament Stem Cells for Periodontal Regeneration [PDF]

Current Oral Health Reports, 2015
Periodontal tissue is susceptible to chronic periodontal disease, which results in irreversible tissue destruction. Adult stem cells can be obtained from the periodontal ligament of the periodontium. Stem cells from the periodontal ligament (PDLSCs) are promising for periodontal regeneration because they can undergo guided differentiation under ...

Resolvin D1 protects periodontal ligament

American Journal of Physiology-Cell Physiology, 2013
Resolution agonists are endogenous mediators that drive inflammation to homeostasis. We earlier demonstrated in vivo activity of resolvins and lipoxins on regenerative periodontal wound healing. The goal of this study was to determine the impact of resolvin D1 (RvD1) on the function of human periodontal ligament (PDL) fibroblasts, which are critical ...

Stem cells in the periodontal ligament [PDF]

Oral Diseases, 2006
The ability to identify and manipulate stem cells has been a significant advancement in regenerative medicine and has contributed to the development of tissue engineering‐based clinical therapies. Difficulties associated with achieving predictable periodontal regeneration, means that novel techniques such as tissue engineering need to be developed in ...

Periodontal Regeneration Using Periodontal Ligament Stem Cell-Transferred Amnion [PDF]

Tissue Engineering Part A, 2013
Periodontal disease is characterized by the destruction of tooth supporting tissues. Regeneration of periodontal tissues using ex vivo expanded cells has been introduced and studied, although appropriate methodology has not yet been established. We developed a novel cell transplant method for periodontal regeneration using periodontal ligament stem ...

Periodontal Ligament Stem Cells [PDF]

, 2011
Millions of people experience consequential tooth loss related to irretrievable damage of the periodontium caused by deep caries, severe periodontal diseases or irreversible trauma, resulting in a decreased quality of life. Hence, dental scientists have focused much attention on tissue engineering techniques in an effort to address this condition.

Allogeneic Periodontal Ligament Stem Cell Therapy for Periodontitis in Swine     [PDF]

Stem Cells, 2010
AbstractPeriodontitis is one of the most widespread infectious diseases in humans. It is the main cause of tooth loss and associated with a number of systemic diseases. Until now, there is no appropriate method for functional periodontal tissue regeneration. Here, we establish a novel approach of using allogeneic periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs)

Material properties of periodontal ligaments

Postępy Higieny i Medycyny Doświadczalnej, 2013
The mechanism of orthodontic teeth movement is not entirely explained. The principal reaction on tissues at the cellular and molecular level is initiated by the force applied to the tooth crown and transferred in turn upon the periodontal ligament (PDL).
