Effect of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound on the mineralization of force-treated cementoblasts and orthodontically induced inflammatory root resorption via the Lamin A/C-Yes associated protein axis. J Periodontal Res 2024. [PMID: 39095980 DOI: 10.1111/jre.13330] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/08/2024] [Revised: 07/07/2024] [Accepted: 07/15/2024] [Indexed: 08/04/2024]
Abstract
AIMS Orthodontic treatment commonly results in orthodontically induced inflammatory root resorption (OIIRR). This condition arises from excessive orthodontic force, which triggerslocal inflammatory responses and impedes cementoblasts' mineralization capacity. Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) shows potential in reducing OIIRR. However, the precise mechanisms through which LIPUS reduces OIIRR remain unclear. This study aimed to explore the effects and mechanisms of LIPUS on the mineralization of force-treated cementoblasts and its impact on OIIRR. METHODS We established a rat OIIRR model and locally administered LIPUS stimulation for 7 and 14 days. We analyzed root resorption volume, osteoclast differentiation, and the expression of osteocalcin and yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1) using micro-computed tomography (micro-CT), hematoxylin and eosin, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase, immunofluorescence and immunohistochemistry staining. In vitro, we applied compressive force and LIPUS to the immortalized mouse cementoblasts (OCCM30). We assessed mineralization using alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining, alizarin red staining, real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction, Western blotting and immunofluorescence staining. RESULTS In rats, LIPUS reduced OIIRR, as evidenced by micro-CT analysis and histological staining. In vitro, LIPUS enhanced mineralization of force-treated OCCM30 cells, as indicated by ALP and alizarin red staining, upregulated mRNA expression of mineralization-related genes, and increased protein expression of mineralization markers. Mechanistically, LIPUS activated YAP1 signaling via the cytoskeleton-Lamin A/C pathway, supported by immunofluorescence and Western blot analysis. CONCLUSION This study demonstrates that LIPUS promotes mineralization in force-treated cementoblasts and reduces OIIRR by activating YAP1 through the cytoskeletal-Lamin A/C signaling pathway. These findings provide fresh insights into how LIPUS benefits orthodontic treatment and suggest potential strategies for preventing and treating OIIRR.

Abstract
Compared with teenage patients, adult patients generally show a slower rate of tooth movement and more pronounced alveolar bone loss during orthodontic treatment, indicating the maladaptation of alveolar bone homeostasis under orthodontic force. However, this phenomenon is not well-elucidated to date, leading to increased treatment difficulties and unsatisfactory treatment outcomes in adult orthodontics. Aiming to provide a comprehensive knowledge and further inspire insightful understanding towards this issue, this review summarizes the current evidence and underlying mechanisms. The age-related abatements in mechanosensing and mechanotransduction in adult cells and periodontal tissue may contribute to retarded and unbalanced bone metabolism, thus hindering alveolar bone reconstruction during orthodontic treatment. To this end, periodontal surgery, physical and chemical cues are being developed to reactivate or rejuvenate the aging periodontium and restore the dynamic equilibrium of orthodontic-mediated alveolar bone metabolism. We anticipate that this review will present a general overview of the role that aging plays in orthodontic alveolar bone metabolism and shed new light on the prospective ways out of the impasse.

Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2024; 12:1347406. [PMID: 38694622 PMCID: PMC11061374 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2024.1347406] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2023] [Accepted: 04/03/2024] [Indexed: 05/04/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) can accelerate tooth movement and preserve tooth and bone integrity during orthodontic treatment. However, the mechanisms by which LIPUS affects tissue remodeling during orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) remain unclear. Periodontal ligament cells (PDLCs) are pivotal in maintaining periodontal tissue equilibrium when subjected to mechanical stimuli. One notable mechano-sensitive ion channel, Piezo1, can modulate cellular function in response to mechanical cues. This study aimed to elucidate the involvement of Piezo1 in the osteogenic response of force-treated PDLCs when stimulated by LIPUS. Method After establishing rat OTM models, LIPUS was used to stimulate rats locally. OTM distance and alveolar bone density were assessed using micro-computed tomography, and histological analyses included hematoxylin and eosin staining, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase staining and immunohistochemical staining. GsMTx4 and Yoda1 were respectively utilized for Piezo1 functional inhibition and activation experiments in rats. We isolated human PDLCs (hPDLCs) in vitro and evaluated the effects of LIPUS on the osteogenic differentiation of force-treated hPDLCs using real-time quantitative PCR, Western blot, alkaline phosphatase and alizarin red staining. Small interfering RNA and Yoda1 were employed to validate the role of Piezo1 in this process. Results LIPUS promoted osteoclast differentiation and accelerated OTM in rats. Furthermore, LIPUS alleviated alveolar bone resorption under pressure and enhanced osteogenesis of force-treated PDLCs both in vivo and in vitro by downregulating Piezo1 expression. Subsequent administration of GsMTx4 in rats and siPIEZO1 transfection in hPDLCs attenuated the inhibitory effect on osteogenic differentiation under pressure, whereas LIPUS efficacy was partially mitigated. Yoda1 treatment inhibited osteogenic differentiation of hPDLCs, resulting in reduced expression of Collagen Ⅰα1 and osteocalcin in the periodontal ligament. However, LIPUS administration was able to counteract these effects. Conclusion This research unveils that LIPUS promotes the osteogenesis of force-treated PDLCs via downregulating Piezo1.

Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound reduces alveolar bone resorption during orthodontic treatment via Lamin A/C-Yes-associated protein axis in stem cells. World J Stem Cells 2024; 16:267-286. [PMID: 38577236 PMCID: PMC10989285 DOI: 10.4252/wjsc.v16.i3.267] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/26/2023] [Revised: 12/30/2023] [Accepted: 02/01/2024] [Indexed: 03/25/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The bone remodeling during orthodontic treatment for malocclusion often requires a long duration of around two to three years, which also may lead to some complications such as alveolar bone resorption or tooth root resorption. Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS), a noninvasive physical therapy, has been shown to promote bone fracture healing. It is also reported that LIPUS could reduce the duration of orthodontic treatment; however, how LIPUS regulates the bone metabolism during the orthodontic treatment process is still unclear. AIM To investigate the effects of LIPUS on bone remodeling in an orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) model and explore the underlying mechanisms. METHODS A rat model of OTM was established, and alveolar bone remodeling and tooth movement rate were evaluated via micro-computed tomography and staining of tissue sections. In vitro, human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs) were isolated to detect their osteogenic differentiation potential under compression and LIPUS stimulation by quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction, Western blot, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining, and Alizarin red staining. The expression of Yes-associated protein (YAP1), the actin cytoskeleton, and the Lamin A/C nucleoskeleton were detected with or without YAP1 small interfering RNA (siRNA) application via immunofluorescence. RESULTS The force treatment inhibited the osteogenic differentiation potential of hBMSCs; moreover, the expression of osteogenesis markers, such as type 1 collagen (COL1), runt-related transcription factor 2, ALP, and osteocalcin (OCN), decreased. LIPUS could rescue the osteogenic differentiation of hBMSCs with increased expression of osteogenic marker inhibited by force. Mechanically, the expression of LaminA/C, F-actin, and YAP1 was downregulated after force treatment, which could be rescued by LIPUS. Moreover, the osteogenic differentiation of hBMSCs increased by LIPUS could be attenuated by YAP siRNA treatment. Consistently, LIPUS increased alveolar bone density and decreased vertical bone absorption in vivo. The decreased expression of COL1, OCN, and YAP1 on the compression side of the alveolar bone was partially rescued by LIPUS. CONCLUSION LIPUS can accelerate tooth movement and reduce alveolar bone resorption by modulating the cytoskeleton-Lamin A/C-YAP axis, which may be a promising strategy to reduce the orthodontic treatment process.

Abstract
Among the adjunctive procedures to accelerate orthodontic tooth movement (OTM), ultrasound (US) is a nonsurgical form of mechanical stimulus that has been explored as an alternative to the currently available treatments. This study aimed to clarify the role of US in OTM by exploring different stimulation parameters and their effects on the biological responses of cells involved in OTM. Human fetal osteoblasts and periodontal ligament fibroblasts cell lines were stimulated with US at 1.0 and 1.5 MHz central frequencies and power densities of 30 and 60 mW/cm2 in continuous mode for 5 and 10 min. Cellular proliferation, metabolic activity and protein expression were analyzed. The US parameters that significantly improved the metabolic activity were 1.0 MHz at 30 mW/cm2 for 5 min and 1.0 MHz at 60 mW/cm2 for 5 and 10 min for osteoblasts; and 1.0 MHz at 30 mW/cm2 for 5 min and 1.5 MHz at 60 mW/cm2 for 5 and 10 min for fibroblasts. By stimulating with these parameters, the expression of alkaline phosphatase was maintained, while osteoprotegerin synthesis was induced after three days of US stimulation. The US stimulation improved the biological activity of both osteoblasts and periodontal ligament fibroblasts, inducing their osteogenic differentiation.

Abstract
Background: Osteoporosis can reduce bone quality and increase the risk of fractures. In addition to pharmacological approaches, physical activity, and implanted devices, external devices can also be detected in the literature as a technique to strengthen bones. This type of intervention arises to be particularly promising because it minimizes the invasiveness of therapy. Methods: A systematic review of the technologies involved in such devices was carried out to identify the most fruitful ones in improving bone quality. This review, according to the PRISMA Statement, focuses on studies involving animals, and excludes pharmaceutical approaches. Findings: The animal models and devices used, their settings, interventions, outcomes measured, and consequent effect on bone quality are reported for each detected technology. Ultrasound and laser arose to be the most studied technologies in the literature, even if they have yet to be proved to have a significant effect on bone quality. Interpretation: External devices for bone quality improvement offer a non-invasive approach that causes minimum discomfort to the patient. This review aimed to detect which technologies reported in the literature significantly affect bone quality. The results showed that several technologies are currently used to improve bone quality. However, each study measures different outcomes and uses different measurement methods, device settings, and interventions. This lack of standardization and the reduced number of articles found do not allow for proper quantitative comparisons.

Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2023; 11:1192720. [PMID: 37425367 PMCID: PMC10326439 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2023.1192720] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2023] [Accepted: 06/16/2023] [Indexed: 07/11/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: The limited regenerative potential of periodontal tissue remains a challenge in orthodontic treatment, especially with respect to alveolar bone remodeling. The dynamic balance between the bone formation of osteoblasts and the bone resorption of osteoclasts controls bone homeostasis. The osteogenic effect of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) is widely accepted, so LIPUS is expected to be a promising method for alveolar bone regeneration. Osteogenesis is regulated by the acoustic mechanical effect of LIPUS, while the cellular perception, transduction mode and response regulation mechanism of LIPUS stimuli are still unclear. This study aimed to explore the effects of LIPUS on osteogenesis by osteoblast-osteoclast crosstalk and the underlying regulation mechanism. Methods: The effects of LIPUS on orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) and alveolar bone remodeling were investigated via rat model by histomorphological analysis. Mouse bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and bone marrow monocytes (BMMs) were purified and used as BMSC-derived osteoblasts and BMM-derived osteoclasts, respectively. The osteoblast-osteoclast co-culture system was used to evaluate the effect of LIPUS on cell differentiation and intercellular crosstalk by Alkaline phosphatase (ALP), Alizarin Red S (ARS), tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining, real-time quantitative PCR, western blotting and immunofluorescence. Results: LIPUS was found to improve OTM and alveolar bone remodeling in vivo, promote differentiation and EphB4 expression in BMSC-derived osteoblasts in vitro, particularly when cells were directly co-cultured with BMM-derived osteoclasts. LIPUS enhanced EphrinB2/EphB4 interaction between osteoblasts and osteoclasts in alveolar bone, activated the EphB4 receptor on osteoblasts membrane, transduced LIPUS-related mechanical signals to the intracellular cytoskeleton, and gave rise to the nuclear translocation of YAP in Hippo signaling pathway, thus regulating cell migration and osteogenic differentiation. Conclusions: This study shows that LIPUS modulates bone homeostasis by osteoblast-osteoclast crosstalk via EphrinB2/EphB4 signaling, which benefits the balance between OTM and alveolar bone remodeling.

Adly MS, Adly AS, Younes R, El Helou M, Panayotov I, Cuisinier F, Carayon D, Estephan E. Prevention and repair of orthodontically induced root resorption using ultrasound: a scoping review. Expert Rev Med Devices 2023. [PMID: 37294872 DOI: 10.1080/17434440.2023.2223965] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/17/2023] [Accepted: 06/06/2023] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION This review summarizes the available recent literature on different mechanisms and parameters of pulsed ultrasound (US) that have been used during orthodontic treatments to prevent and repair root resorption. AREAS COVERED A literature search was conducted between January (2002) and September (2022) in the following databases: PubMed, Google-Scholar, Embase and The-Cochrane-Library. After exclusions, a total of 19 papers were included in the present review. The most used US parameters with positive outcomes were frequency of 1.5 MHz, pulse repetition frequency of 1000 Hz, output intensity of 30 mW/cm2, duration of application of 20 mins and total number sessions were 14 with a repetition interval of 1day. The suggested mechanisms induced by US were alteration of cementoblasts, osteoblasts, osteoclasts, alkaline-phosphatase (ALP), runt-related-gene-2 (Runx2), osteoprotegerin (OPG), type-I-collagen (Col-I), C-telopeptide-type-I-collagen (CTX-I), hepatocyte-growth-factor (HGF), bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2), cyclooxygenase-2 (Cox-2), calcium (Ca2+), receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa-B ligand (RANKL), and receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa-B (RANK). EXPERT OPINION Understanding mechanisms and deciding which parameters of US that can be used during orthodontic treatment to prevent and repair root resorption is a great challenge. This work summarizes all the available data that can aid this process and suggest that US is an effective noninvasive method not only in prevention and repairing of orthodontic induced root resorption but also in accelerating teeth movement.

Al-Dboush R, Esfahani AN, El-Bialy T. Impact of photobiomodulation and low-intensity pulsed ultrasound adjunctive interventions on orthodontic treatment duration during clear aligner therapy: A retrospective study. Angle Orthod 2021; 91:619-625. [PMID: 33909012 DOI: 10.2319/112420-956.1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2020] [Accepted: 03/01/2021] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the efficiency of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) and photobiomodulation (PBM) interventions in accelerating orthodontic tooth movement during clear aligner therapy (CAT). MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective study was carried out on the records of 84 subjects who were treated using CAT. Twenty-eight patients were treated using CAT with a daily use of LIPUS for 20 minutes, 28 patients were treated using CAT with a daily use of PBM for 10 minutes, and 28 patients were treated using CAT alone. The total duration of treatment was recorded for all patients. One-way analysis of variance and post hoc Tukey test were used to assess whether there was any significant difference in total treatment duration among the three groups (P < .05). RESULTS The mean treatment durations in days were 719 ± 220, 533 ± 242, and 528 ± 323 for the control, LIPUS, and PBM groups, respectively. The LIPUS group showed a 26% reduction, on average, in treatment duration when compared with the control group, whereas the PBM group showed an average 26.6% reduction in the treatment duration when compared with the control group. The results showed that there were statistically significant differences among the groups (P = .011). Treatment durations were significantly reduced in the LIPUS and PBM groups as compared with the control (P = .027 and P = .023, respectively), with no statistically significant differences between the LIPUS and PBM groups (P = .998). CONCLUSIONS Daily use of LIPUS or PBM as adjunctive interventions during CAT could reduce the duration of orthodontic treatment.
