Healing in Transplanted Teeth with Periodontal Ligament Cultured In Vitro
Regeneration of connective tissue attachment is the ultimate goal of periodontal therapy. It has been suggested that periodontal ligament cells possess the potential to create new connective tissue attachment.

Periodontal ligament tissues support neutrophil differentiation and maturation processes [PDF]
IntroductionPeriodontal ligament is the soft connective tissue joining the roots of teeth with alveolar bone. The periodontal ligament presents significant cellular heterogeneity, including fibroblasts, endothelial cells, cementoblasts, osteoblasts ...

Stem cells in the periodontal ligament [PDF]
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 ...

Homeostasis and Regeneration of the Periodontal Ligament
Homeostatic and reparative functions of the periodontal ligament are most significant in respect to periodontal therapy and transplantation and/or replantation of tooth. Based on our experimental studies and currently published studies, this review article discusses the mechanism of both tissue regeneration and homeostatic function of the periodontal ...

ILC1s and ILC3s Exhibit Inflammatory Phenotype in Periodontal Ligament of Periodontitis Patients
Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are emerging as important players in inflammatory diseases. The oral mucosal barrier harbors all ILC subsets, but how these cells regulate the immune responses in periodontal ligament tissue during periodontitis remains ...

Significant type I and type III collagen production from human periodontal ligament fibroblasts in 3D peptide scaffolds without extra growth factors. [PDF]
We here report the development of two peptide scaffolds designed for periodontal ligament fibroblasts. The scaffolds consist of one of the pure self-assembling peptide scaffolds RADA16 through direct coupling to short biologically active motifs.

Roles of extracellular adenosine triphosphate on the functions of periodontal ligament cells
Objective Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is an essential nucleotide that is normally present in both intracellular and extracellular compartments. Extracellular ATP (eATP) has a pivotal role in both physiological and pathological processes of periodontal ...

Activity of 25-hydroxylase in human gingival fibroblasts and periodontal ligament cells. [PDF]
We previously demonstrated that 25-hydroxyvitamin D(3) concentrations in gingival crevicular fluid are 300 times higher than those in the plasma of patients with aggressive periodontitis. Here we explored whether 25-hydroxyvitamin D(3) can be synthesized

Importance of periodontal ligament thickness [PDF]
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
