Periodontal ligament and gingival fibroblasts participate in the production of TGF-β, interleukin (IL)-8 and IL-10

Brazilian Oral Research, 2011
The aim of this study was to quantify and compare the production of transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β), interleukin (IL)-8 and IL-10 by human cultured periodontal ligament and gingival fibroblasts both obtained from the same donors challenged ...

Maresin-1 and Resolvin E1 Promote Regenerative Properties of Periodontal Ligament Stem Cells Under Inflammatory Conditions

Frontiers in Immunology, 2020
Maresin-1 (MaR1) and Resolvin E1 (RvE1) are specialized pro-resolving lipid mediators (SPMs) that regulate inflammatory processes. We have previously demonstrated the hard and soft tissue regenerative capacity of RvE1 in an in vivo model of the ...

Periodontal ligament tissues support neutrophil differentiation and maturation processes

Frontiers in Immunology
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 ...

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)

Biological Events in Periodontal Ligament and Alveolar Bone Associated with Application of Orthodontic Forces

The Scientific World Journal, 2015
Orthodontic force-induced stresses cause dynamic alterations within the extracellular matrix and within the cytoskeleton of cells in the periodontal ligament and alveolar bone, mediating bone remodelling, ultimately enabling orthodontic tooth movement ...

The Analytical Model of the Initial Translational Displacements of the Tooth Root in the Linear Elastic Periodontal Ligament

Механика машин, механизмов и материалов, 2014
The mathematical modeling of the stress-strain state of the periodontal ligament for the translational displacement of the tooth root is carried out. The tooth root is absolutely rigid body and the periodontal ligament has a constant thickness.

Possible Involvement of Leptin in Pathogenesis of Periodontal Disease

Biology
Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory condition of the periodontal tissues, ultimately leading to their destruction. The periodontal ligament is a key structure that not only secures the teeth within the alveolus but can also act as a source of ...
