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.

Characterization of the autocrine/paracrine function of vitamin D in human gingival fibroblasts and periodontal ligament cells. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 BACKGROUND: We previously demonstrated that 25-hydroxyvitamin D(3), the precursor of 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3), is abundant around periodontal soft tissues.

Isolation of Single Cells from Mouse Periodontal Ligament
Bio-Protocol, 2021 The periodontal ligament (PDL) is an essential tissue connecting teeth and bone. It is a complex tissue specifically designed to absorb the forces of mastication; analysis of its multiple cell populations is important to understand its function and the ...

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.

Improved methods for detection of β-galactosidase (lacZ) activity in hard tissue [PDF]
, 2012 The ß-galactosidase gene (lacZ) of Escherichia coli is widely used as a reporter gene. The expression of lacZ can be detected by enzyme-based histochemical staining using chromogenic substrates such as 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl-ß-D: -galactoside (X-gal).
