Mechanoresponsive Properties of the Periodontal Ligament

Journal of Dental Research, 2016
The periodontal ligament (PDL) functions as an enthesis, a connective tissue attachment that dissipates strains created by mechanical loading. Entheses are mechanoresponsive structures that rapidly adapt to changes in their mechanical loading; here we asked which features of the PDL are sensitive to such in vivo loading.

Probiotic consumption reduces alveolar bone loss and kidney damage in pregnant rats with experimental periodontitis

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis HN019 (B. lactis HN019) is a probiotic bacterial strain with immunomodulatory properties. Its benefits have been observed in healthy and systemically compromised animals with periodontitis (PD). Our objective was to investigate the local and systemic effects of the systemic administration of B.

Amelogenin Peptide Extract Increases Differentiation and Angiogenic and Local Factor Production and Inhibits Apoptosis in Human Osteoblasts [PDF]

, 2013
Enamel matrix derivative (EMD), a decellularized porcine extracellular matrix (ECM), is used clinically in periodontal tissue regeneration. Amelogenin, EMD’s principal component, spontaneously assembles into nanospheres in vivo, forming an ECM complex ...

The effect of non‐surgical periodontal treatment on progranulin levels

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The aim of this study was to study the effect of non‐surgical periodontal therapy (NSPT) on gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) and serum progranulin (PGRN) levels in the early healing phases. Methods The study included periodontitis (test) (n = 24) and periodontal health (control) (n = 24) groups.

Human adipose stem cell-conditioned medium increases survival of Friedreich's Ataxia cells submitted to oxidative stress [PDF]

, 2012
Friedreich's ataxia (FA) is a multisystemic disorder characterized by progressive gait, ataxia, and cardiomyopathy. There are few treatments for this disease; thus, we analyzed in vitro the possible beneficial effect of adult stem cells in FA.

Peri‐implant hypoxia as a potential barrier against ferroptotic mechanisms during peri‐implant diseases: A cross‐sectional study

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Hypoxia modulates inflammation and oxidative stress through hypoxia‐inducible factor‐1α (HIF‐1α). Ferroptosis, an iron‐dependent cell death process, is regulated by glutathione peroxidase‐4 (GPX4) and involves lipid peroxidation markers like malondialdehyde (MDA).
