BMC Oral Health 2024; 24:329. [PMID: 38475789 DOI: 10.1186/s12903-024-04092-1] [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: 12/06/2023] [Accepted: 03/02/2024] [Indexed: 03/14/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to investigate the in vitro effect of the antirheumatic drug methotrexate (MTX) on biomechanically compressed human periodontal ligament fibroblasts (hPDLFs), focusing on the expression of interleukin 6 (IL-6), as its upregulation is relevant to orthodontic tooth movement. METHODS Human PDLFs were subjected to pressure and simultaneously treated with MTX. Cell proliferation, viability and morphology were studied, as was the gene and protein expression of IL-6. RESULTS Compared with that in untreated fibroblasts, IL-6 mRNA expression in mechanically compressed ligament fibroblasts was increased (two to sixfold; ****p < 0.0001). Under compression, hPDLFs exhibited a significantly more expanded shape with an increase of cell extensions. MTX with and without pressure did not affect IL-6 mRNA expression or the morphology of hPDLFs. CONCLUSION MTX has no effect on IL-6 expression in compressed ligament fibroblasts.

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.

Brown ME, Puetzer JL. Enthesis maturation in engineered ligaments is differentially driven by loads that mimic slow growth elongation and rapid cyclic muscle movement. Acta Biomater 2023; 172:106-122. [PMID: 37839633 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2023.10.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/16/2023] [Revised: 09/17/2023] [Accepted: 10/10/2023] [Indexed: 10/17/2023]
Abstract
Entheses are complex attachments that translate load between elastic-ligaments and stiff-bone via organizational and compositional gradients. Neither natural healing, repair, nor engineered replacements restore these gradients, contributing to high re-tear rates. Previously, we developed a culture system which guides ligament fibroblasts in high-density collagen gels to develop early postnatal-like entheses, however further maturation is needed. Mechanical cues, including slow growth elongation and cyclic muscle activity, are critical to enthesis development in vivo but these cues have not been widely explored in engineered entheses and their individual contribution to maturation is largely unknown. Our objective here was to investigate how slow stretch, mimicking ACL growth rates, and intermittent cyclic loading, mimicking muscle activity, individually drive enthesis maturation in our system so to shed light on the cues governing enthesis development, while further developing our tissue engineered replacements. Interestingly, we found these loads differentially drive organizational maturation, with slow stretch driving improvements in the interface/enthesis region, and cyclic load improving the ligament region. However, despite differentially affecting organization, both loads produced improvements to interface mechanics and zonal composition. This study provides insight into how mechanical cues differentially affect enthesis development, while producing some of the most organized engineered enthesis to date. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Entheses attach ligaments to bone and are critical to load transfer; however, entheses do not regenerate with repair or replacement, contributing to high re-tear rates. Mechanical cues are critical to enthesis development in vivo but their individual contribution to maturation is largely unknown and they have not been widely explored in engineered replacements. Here, using a novel culture system, we provide new insight into how slow stretch, mimicking ACL growth rates, and intermittent cyclic loading, mimicking muscle activity, differentially affect enthesis maturation in engineered ligament-to-bone tissues, ultimately producing some of the most organized entheses to date. This system is a promising platform to explore cues regulating enthesis formation so to produce functional engineered replacements and better drive regeneration following repair.

Abstract
Mechanical forces play important roles in many biological processes and there is increasing interest and understanding of these roles. Mechanotransduction is the process by which mechanical stimuli are converted to biochemical signals through specific mechanisms, and this results in the activation of downstream signaling pathways with specific effects on cell behaviors. This review systematically summarizes the current understanding of the mechanosensitive Piezo1 and Piezo2 ion channels in craniofacial bone, tooth, and periodontal tissue, presenting the latest relevant evidence with implications for potential treatments and managements of dental and orofacial diseases and deformities. The mechanosensitive ion channels Piezo1 and Piezo2 are widely expressed in various cells and tissues and have essential functions in mechanosensation and mechanotransduction. These channels play an active role in many physiological and pathological processes, such as growth and development, mechano-stimulated bone homeostasis and the mediation of inflammatory responses. Emerging evidence indicates the expression of Piezo1 and Piezo2 in bone, dental tissues and dental tissue-derived stem cells and suggests that they function in dental sensation transduction, dentin mineralization and periodontal bone remodeling and modulate orthodontic tooth movement.

Intermittent compressive force regulates human periodontal ligament cell behavior via yes-associated protein. Heliyon 2022; 8:e10845.

Abstract
Intermittent compressive force influences human periodontal ligament (PDL) cell behavior that facilitates periodontal tissue regeneration. In response to mechanical stimuli, Yes-associated protein (YAP) has been recognized as a mechanosensitive transcriptional activator that regulates cell proliferation and cell fate decisions. This study aimed to investigate whether compressive forces influence cell proliferation and cell fate decisions of human PDL cells via YAP signaling. YAP expression was silenced by shRNA. The effect of YAP on cell proliferation, adipogenesis and osteogenesis of PDL cells under ICF loading were determined. Adipogenic differentiation bias upon ICF loading was confirmed by fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The results revealed that ICF-induced YAP promotes osteogenesis, but it inhibits adipogenesis in PDL cells. Depletion of YAP results in PDL cells that are irresponsive to ICF and, therefore, the failure of the PDL cells to undergo osteogenic differentiation. This was shown by a significant reduction in calcium deposited in the CF-derived osteoblasts of the YAP-knockdown (YAP-KD) PDL cells. As to control treatment, reduction of YAP promoted adipogenesis, whereas ICF-induced YAP inhibited this mechanism. However, the adipocyte differentiation in YAP-KD cells was not affected upon ICF treatment as the YAP-KD cells still exhibited a better adipogenic differentiation that was unrelated to the ICF. This study demonstrated that, in response to ICF treatment, YAP could be a crucial mechanosensitive transcriptional activator for the regulation of PDL cell behavior through a mechanobiological process. Our results may provide the possibility of facilitating PDL tissue regeneration by manipulation of the Hippo-YAP signaling pathway. YAP plays role as a mechanosensitive transcriptional activator of human PDL cells in response to ICF. ICF activates YAP and its target genes to promote cell proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of human PDL cells. Loss of YAP enhances adipogenic differentiation of human periodontal ligament cells.

Abstract
![]()
Cell and tissue alignment
is a defining feature of periodontal
tissues. Therefore, the development of scaffolds that can guide alignment
of periodontal ligament cells (PDLCs) relative to tooth root (dentin)
surfaces is highly relevant for periodontal tissue engineering. To
control PDLC alignment adjacent to the dentin surface, poly(ethylene
glycol) (PEG)-based hydrogels were explored as a highly tunable matrix
for encapsulating cells and directing their activity. Specifically,
a composite system consisting of dentin blocks, PEG hydrogels, and
PDLCs was created to control PDLC alignment through hydrogel swelling.
PDLCs in composites with minimal hydrogel swelling showed random alignment
adjacent to dentin blocks. In direct contrast, the presence of hydrogel
swelling resulted in PDLC alignment perpendicular to the dentin surface,
with the degree and extension of alignment increasing as a function
of swelling. Replicating this phenomenon with different molds, block
materials, and cells, together with predictive modeling, indicated
that PDLC alignment was primarily a biomechanical response to swelling-mediated
strain. Altogether, this study describes a novel method for inducing
cell alignment adjacent to stiff surfaces through applied strain and
provides a model for the study and engineering of periodontal and
other aligned tissues.

Abstract
Purpose The role of periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) in mediating osteogenesis involved in orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) is well established. However, various relevant in vitro studies vary in the frequency of tension. The effect of tensile frequency on the mechanotransduction of PDLSCs is not clear. The current study aimed to determine the effect of different tensile frequencies on the osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs and to identify important mechano-sensitivity genes. Methods Human PDLSCs were isolated, identified, and subjected to cyclic equibiaxial tensile strain of 12% at different frequencies of 0.1 Hz, 0.5 Hz, 0.7 Hz, or static cultures. Osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs was assessed by using Western blotting. High-throughput sequencing was used to identify differential mRNA expression. Short time-series expression miner (STEM) was utilized to describe the frequency patterns of the mRNAs. The functions and enriched pathways were identified, and the hub genes were identified and validated. Results We found that the osteoblastic differentiation capacity of PDLSCs increased with tensile frequency in the range of 0.1–0.7 Hz. Eight frequency-tendency gene expression profiles were identified to be statistically significant. Tensile frequency-specific expressed genes, such as SALL1 and EYA1, which decreased with the increase in tensile frequency, were found. Conclusion The osteoblastic differentiation of PDLSCs under mechanical tensile force is frequency dependent. EYA1 and SALL1 were identified as potential important tensile frequency-sensitive genes, which may contribute to the cyclic tension-induced osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs in a frequency-dependent manner.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The glycoprotein sclerostin is mostly expressed in osteocytes and plays a central role in human bone metabolism. However, sclerostin and the corresponding SOST gene have been found in periodontal ligament cells under mineralizing conditions as well. The present study aimed to investigate, whether there was a correlation between endogenous SOST expression, the corresponding gene, and mineralization potential in human periodontal ligament cells and to identify different sclerostin expression and secretion patterns in cells derived from individual donors. MATERIAL AND METHODS Primary human periodontal ligament cells of three different donors were cultivated under control or mineralizing conditions for 6, 13, 15 and 18 days, respectively. Calcium deposits were stained with alizarin red and quantified afterwards. Quantitative expression analysis of the SOST gene encoding sclerostin was performed using quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Additionally, intracellular sclerostin expression was analyzed using Western blotting and extracellular sclerostin secretion was quantified using Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). RESULTS Alizarin red staining identified calcium deposits in periodontal ligament cells under mineralizing conditions beginning from day 13, relative SOST expression occurred on day 6. Whereas staining continued to increase in donor 1 on day 15, it remained stable in donors 2 and 3. Conversely, baseline SOST expression was significantly lower in donor 1 compared to donors 2 and 3. Western blotting and ELISA revealed increased intra- and extracellular sclerostin expression at day 13 under mineralizing conditions. Donor 3 exhibited the highest overall sclerostin levels. CONCLUSIONS Our data emphasize donor-specific characteristics in differentiation potential and sclerostin expression patterns in primary human periodontal ligament cells. Sclerostin might play a central role in modulating osteogenic differentiation in periodontal ligament cells as part of a negative feedback mechanism in avoiding excessive mineralization.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the effects of different magnitudes and durations of static tensile strain on human periodontal ligament cells (hPDLCs), focusing on osteogenesis, mechanosensing and inflammation. Static tensile strain magnitudes of 0%, 3%, 6%, 10%, 15% and 20% were applied to hPDLCs for 1, 2 and 3 days. Cell viability was confirmed via live/dead cell staining. Reference genes were tested by reverse transcription quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and assessed. The expressions of TNFRSF11B, ALPL, RUNX2, BGLAP, SP7, FOS, IL6, PTGS2, TNF, IL1B, IL8, IL10 and PGE2 were analyzed by RT-qPCR and/or enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). ALPL and RUNX2 both peaked after 1 day, reaching their maximum at 3%, whereas BGLAP peaked after 3 days with its maximum at 10%. SP7 peaked after 1 day at 6%, 10% and 15%. FOS peaked after 3 days with its maximum at 3%, 6% and 15%. The expressions of IL6 and PTGS2 both peaked after 1 day, with their minimum at 10%. PGE2 peaked after 1 day (maximum at 20%). The ELISA of IL6 peaked after 3 days, with the minimum at 10%. In summary, the lower magnitudes promoted osteogenesis and caused less inflammation, while the higher magnitudes inhibited osteogenesis and enhanced inflammation. Among all magnitudes, 10% generally caused a lower level of inflammation with a higher level of osteogenesis.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate in vitro the impact of fibroblast growth factor 1 (FGF1) in comparison to ascorbic acid (AscA) on human periodontal ligament fibroblast (HPdLF) growth, their osteogenic differentiation, and modulation of their inflammatory reaction to mechanical stress. METHODS The influence of different concentrations of FGF1 (12.5-200 ng/mL) on growth and proliferation of HPdLF cells was analyzed over 20 days by counting cell numbers and the percentage of Ki67-positive cells. Quantitative expression analysis of genes encoding the osteogenic markers alkaline phosphatase (ALPL), Runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2), osteocalcin (OCN), and osteopontin (OSP), as well as the fibroblast markers vimentin (VIM) and fibroblast-specific protein 1 (FSP1), was performed after 2 and 20 days of cultivation. Metabolic activity was determined by MTT assay. For comparison with AscA, 50 ng/mL FGF1 was used for stimulation for 2 and 20 days. Cell number, percentage of Ki67-positive cells, and expression of osteoblast- and fibroblast-specific genes were examined. Alkaline phosphatase activity was visualized by NBT/BCIP and calcium deposits were stained with alizarin red. Cytokine (IL‑6, IL‑8, COX2/PGE2) expression and secretion were analyzed by qPCR and ELISA in 6 h mechanically compressed HPdLF cultured for 2 days with FGF1 or ascorbic acid. RESULTS Higher concentrations of FGF1 promoted cell proliferation upon short-term stimulation, whereas prolonged treatment induced the expression of osteogenic markers even with low concentrations. AscA promotes cell growth more markedly than FGF1 in short-term cultures, whereas FGF1 induced osteogenic cell fate more strongly in long-term culture. Both factors induced an increased inflammatory response of HPdLF to mechanical compression. CONCLUSION Our data suggest that FGF1 promotes an osteogenic phenotype of HPdLF and limits inflammatory response to mechanical forces compared to AscA.

Abstract
Orthodontic tooth movement is based on the remodeling of tooth-surrounding tissues in response to mechanical stimuli. During this process, human periodontal ligament cells (hPDLCs) play a central role in mechanosensing and mechanotransduction. Various in vitro models have been introduced to investigate the effect of tension on hPDLCs. They provide a valuable body of knowledge on how tension influences relevant genes, proteins, and metabolites. However, no systematic review summarizing these findings has been conducted so far. Aim of this systematic review was to identify all related in vitro studies reporting tension application on hPDLCs and summarize their findings regarding force parameters, including magnitude, frequency and duration. Expression data of genes, proteins, and metabolites was extracted and summarized. Studies' risk of bias was assessed using tailored risk of bias tools. Signaling pathways were identified by protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks using STRING and GeneAnalytics. According to our results, Flexcell Strain Unit® and other silicone-plate or elastic membrane-based apparatuses were mainly adopted. Frequencies of 0.1 and 0.5 Hz were predominantly applied for dynamic equibiaxial and uniaxial tension, respectively. Magnitudes of 10 and 12% were mostly employed for dynamic tension and 2.5% for static tension. The 10 most commonly investigated genes, proteins and metabolites identified, were mainly involved in osteogenesis, osteoclastogenesis or inflammation. Gene-set enrichment analysis and PPI networks gave deeper insight into the involved signaling pathways. This review represents a brief summary of the massive body of knowledge in this field, and will also provide suggestions for future researches on this topic.

Abstract
Background/purpose Previous studies have shown that miR-874 is considered to be an important regulatory factor that participated in osteoclast differentiation. The role of miR-874-3p on osteoclast differentiation of human periodontal ligament fibroblast(hPDLF), however, is still unclear. This study was aimed to delve into the related molecular mechanism of miR-874-3p on hPDLF osteoclast differentiation. Materials and methods The qRT-PCR assays were applied to check miR-874-3p and WNT3A expression levels during the osteoclast differentiation of hPDLF. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity assays and alizarin red staining assays were applied to appraise the degree of hPDLF osteoclast differentiation. Bioinformatics method and dual-luciferase reporter assay were employed together to anticipate and certify the interaction between miR-874-3p and WNT3A. Western blot assay was applied to examine the β-catenin and WNT3A expression in transfected hPDLF. Results In this study, the results indicated that the expression level of miR-874-3p was gradually down-regulated while WNT3A was concomitantly increased during osteogenic differentiation of hPDLF. Overexpression or knockdown of miR-874-3p would inhibit or promote WNT3A and β-catenin protein expression as well as osteogenic differentiation of hPDLF, respectively. Further research indicated that miR-874-3p directly regulated WNT3A expression via coupling with the 3′-UTR of WNT3A. Finally, upregulation of WNT3A expression levels rescues β-catenin expression levels and osteogenic differentiation of hPDLF inhibited by miR-874-3p was explored. Conclusion MiR-874-3p inhibits osteogenic differentiation of hPDLF through regulating Wnt/β-catenin pathway.

Abstract
Objectives
This study aimed to evaluate the effect of
Porphyromonas gingivalis
and nicotine on the
in vitro
osteogenic differentiation of periodontal ligament (PDL) fibroblasts.
Materials and Methods
PDLs were cultured in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum at 37°C under 5% CO
2
and 100% humidified atmosphere. Cells were incubated with various concentrations of nicotine and
P. gingivalis
extracts, and cell viability was determined by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide assay. To study cell differentiation, PDLs (5 × 10
4
cells) were treated with the osteogenic differentiation medium containing 10 mM β-glycerophosphate, 10 nM dexamethasone, 50 mg/mL ascorbic acid, 1 μM nicotine, and 50 µg/mL
P. gingivalis
lysate. mRNA samples were collected at 0, 7, and 14 days. Odontogenic-related gene expression, namely, Runt-related transcription factor 2 (
Runx2
), collagen type I (
COL1A1
), and alkaline phosphatase (
ALP
) was determined by reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Calcified nodule formation was determined on day 28 using Alizarin Red S. Analysis of variance and Tukey’s test were used to compare the difference among groups at significant level of
p
< 0.05.
Results
It showed that 50 µg/mL of
P. gingivalis
lysate and 1 µM of nicotine showed no toxicity to PDLs.
Runx2
,
COL1A1
, and
ALP
expression were found to decrease significantly after 7 days of treatment, while osteocalcin expression was found to decrease after 14 days. The nodule formation in the control group was much greater in both number and size of nodules than in experimental groups, which implied a positive sign of calcium deposition in controls.
Conclusion
The results indicated that nicotine and
P. gingivalis
showed adverse effect on osteogenic differentiation properties of PDLs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE Periodontal ligament fibroblasts (PDLF) play an important mediating role in orthodontic tooth movement expressing various cytokines, when exposed to compressive or tensile strain. Here, we present a simplified and easy-to-handle, but reliable and valid method for simulating static isotropic tensile strain in vitro using spherical silicone cap stamps. Furthermore, we identify appropriate reference genes for data normalization in real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) experiments on PDLF subjected to tensile strain. MATERIALS AND METHODS PDLF were cultivated on flexible bioflex membranes and exposed to static isotropic tensile strain of different magnitudes and timeframes. We determined cell number, cytotoxicity, and relative expression of proinflammatory genes cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and interleukin-6 (IL-6). For normalization of RT-qPCR data, we tested the stability and validity of nine candidate reference genes with four mathematical algorithms (geNorm, NormFinder, comparative ΔCq, and BestKeeper) and ranked them based on their calculated expression stability. RESULTS We observed no decrease in cell number or cytotoxic effect at any of the applied magnitudes and timeframes of tensile strain. At 16 per cent and 35 per cent tensile strain for 48 hours, we detected a significant increase in COX-2 and decrease in IL-6 gene expression. Highest stability was found for TBP (TATA-box-binding protein) and PPIB (peptidylprolyl isomerase A) in reference gene validation. According to the geNorm algorithm, both genes in conjunction are sufficient for normalization. In contrast to all other candidate genes tested, gene expression normalization of target gene COX-2 to reference genes EEF1A1, RPL22, and RNA18S5 indicated no significant upregulation of COX-2 expression. CONCLUSIONS A strain magnitude of 16 per cent for 48 hours elicited the most distinct cellular response by PDLF subjected to static tensile isotropic strain by the presented method. TBP and PPIB in conjunction proved to be the most appropriate reference genes to normalize target gene expression in RT-qPCR studies on PDLF subjected to tensile strain.

Abstract
Alveolar bone (AB) remodeling is necessary for the adaption to mechanical stimuli occurring during mastication and orthodontic tooth movement (OTM). Thereby, bone degradation and assembly are strongly regulated processes that can be altered in obese patients. Further, increased fatty acids (FA) serum levels affect bone remodeling cells and we, therefore, investigated whether they also influence the function of periodontal ligament fibroblast (PdLF). PdLF are a major cell type regulating the differentiation and function of osteoblasts and osteoclasts localized in the AB. We stimulated human PdLF (HPdLF) in vitro with palmitic (PA) or oleic acid (OA) and analyzed their metabolic activity, growth, survival and expression of osteogenic markers and calcium deposits. Our results emphasize that PA increased cell death of HPdLF, whereas OA induced their osteoblastic differentiation. Moreover, quantitative expression analysis of OPG and RANKL revealed altered levels in mechanically stimulated PA-treated HPdLF. Furthermore, osteoclasts stimulated with culture medium of mechanical stressed FA-treated HPdLF revealed significant changes in cell differentiation upon FA-treatment. For the first time, our results highlight a potential role of specific FA in the function of HPdLF-modulated AB remodeling and help to elucidate the complex interplay of bone metabolism, mechanical stimulation and obesity-induced alterations.

Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM There is a long-held assumption that teeth are superior to implants because the periodontal ligament (PDL) confers a preeminent defense against biologic and mechanical challenges. However, adequate analysis of the literature is lacking. As a result, differential treatment planning of tooth- and implant-supported restorations has been compromised. PURPOSE Given an abundance and diversity of research, the purpose of this mapping review was to identify basic scientific gaps in the knowledge of how teeth and implants respond to biologic and mechanical loads. The findings will offer enhanced evidence-based clinical decision-making when considering replacement of periodontally compromised teeth and the design of implant prostheses. MATERIAL AND METHODS The online databases PubMed, Science Direct, and Web of Science were searched. Published work from 1965 to 2020 was collected and independently analyzed by both authors for inclusion in this review. RESULTS A total of 108 articles met the inclusion criteria of clinical, in vivo, and in vitro studies in the English language on the periradicular and peri-implant bone response to biologic and mechanical loads. The qualitative analysis found that the PDL's enhanced vascularity, stem cell ability, and resident cells that respond to inflammation allow for a more robust defense against biologic threats compared with implants. While the suspensory PDL acts to mediate moderate loads to the bone, higher compressive stress and strain within the PDL itself can initiate a biologic sequence of osteoclastic activity that can affect changes in the adjacent bone. Conversely, the peri-implant bone is more resistant to similar loads and the threshold for overload is higher because of the absence of a stress or strain sensitivity inherent in the PDL. CONCLUSIONS Based on this mapping review, teeth are superior to implants in their ability to resist biologic challenges, but implants are superior to teeth in managing higher compressive loads without prompting bone resorption.

Abstract
Purpose During orthodontic tooth movement, pressure and tension zones develop in the periodontal ligament, and periodontal ligament fibroblasts (PDLF) become exposed to mechanical strain. Enhanced salt (NaCl) concentrations are known to modulate responses of PDLF and immune cells to different stimuli like mechanical strain. Here, we investigated the impact of tensile strain on the gene expression profile of PDLF under normal (NS) and high salt (HS) conditions. Methods After preincubation under NS or HS (+40 mM NaCl in medium) conditions for 24 h, PDLF were stretched 16% for 48 h using custom-made spherical cap silicone stamps using an established and published setup. After determination of cell number and cytotoxicity, we analyzed expression of genes involved in extracellular matrix reorganization, angiogenesis, bone remodeling, and inflammation by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Results Tensile strain did not affect the expression of genes involved in angiogenesis or extracellular matrix reorganization by PDLF, which however modulate inflammatory responses and bone remodeling in reaction to 16% static tensile strain. Salt (NaCl) treatment triggered enhanced extracellular matrix formation, expression of cyclooxygenase 2 and bone metabolism in PDLF during tensile strain. Conclusions Salt (NaCl) consumption may influence orthodontic tooth movement and periodontal bone loss via modulation of extracellular matrix and bone metabolism. Excessive salt intake during orthodontic therapy may cause adverse effects regarding periodontal inflammation and bone resorption.

Abstract
To develop a model to investigate a potential relationship between mechanical strain, cell responses, and endoplasmic reticulum stress in periodontal ligament (PDL) cells, primary PDL cell cultures were obtained from extracted premolars. Cells were cultured in hydrogel and subjected to 24 h of static mechanical strain, resulting in 18% dimensional substrate elongation. Cell viability, caspase-3/7 activity, and mRNA levels for 28 genes, including unfolded protein response (UPR)-related and mechanically responsive genes, serving as positive controls for stress induction, were examined. Compared with unstrained cultures, no difference in caspase activity was observed; however, viability responses differed between cell lines. Multiple UPR-related genes were differentially upregulated, with marginal statistical significance, including cAMP responsive element binding protein 3 like 3 (CREB3L3) (mean fold-regulation = 1.91), an adenosine monophosphate-dependent transcription factor with roles in UPR activation and the acute inflammatory response; and the pro-apoptotic UPR gene, endoplasmic reticulum to nucleus signaling 2 (ERN2) (mean fold-regulation = 4.01). The observed effect on cell viability following strain with no change in caspase activity suggests that reduction in viability may be mediated via caspase-3/7-independent mechanisms. Three-dimensional mechanical strain PDL cell culture models offer a method to study the role of endoplasmic reticulum stress and UPR, and provide a framework and potential UPR targets for future investigations.

Abstract
The pre-occlusal eruption brings the molars into functional occlusion and initiates tensional strains during mastication. We hypothesized that upon establishment of occlusal contact, the periodontal ligament (PDL) undergoes cell and extracellular matrix maturation to adapt to this mechanical function. The PDL of 12 Wistar male rats were laser microdissected to observe the proteomic changes between stages of pre-occlusal eruption, initial occlusal contact and 1-week after occlusion. The proteome was screened by mass spectrometry and confirmed by immunofluorescence. The PDL underwent maturation upon establishment of occlusion. Downregulation of alpha-fetoprotein stem cell marker and protein synthesis markers indicate cell differentiation. Upregulated proteins were components of the extracellular matrix (ECM) and were characterized with the matrisome project database. In particular, periostin, a major protein of the PDL, was induced following occlusal contact and localized around collagen α-1 (III) bundles. This co-localization coincided with organization of collagen fibers in direction of the occlusal forces. Establishment of occlusion coincides with cellular differentiation and the maturation of the PDL. Co-localization of periostin and collagen with subsequent fiber organization may help counteract tensional forces and reinforce the ECM structure. This may be a key mechanism of the PDL to adapt to occlusal forces and maintain structural integrity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mechanical stimuli can cause periodontal tissue reconstruction. Studies have found that changes in metabolites can be the terminal effect of integrin-mediated mechanical signaling. As a key kinase in integrin regulation, integrin-linked kinase (ILK) mediates mechanical signal transduction, which may contribute to metabolite changes. Defining the components of small-molecule metabolites can optimize mechanical stimuli and periodontal tissue reconstruction. Our purpose is to detect the effect of ILK-mediated mechanical signaling on intracellular small-molecule metabolites (amino acids and organic acids) in human periodontal ligament fibroblasts (HPDLFs). METHODS Primary HPDLFs were isolated by enzyme digestion method. Tensile stresses were applied on HPDLFs in vitro using a Flexcell system. ILK gene in HPDLFs was knocked down by RNA interference (RNAi). Twenty common amino acids and seven organic acids in HPDLFs were analyzed by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry technique. RESULTS Five amino acids (ie, alanine, glutamine, glutamate, glycine, and threonine) and three organic acids (ie, pyruvate, lactate, and citric acid) were found to be changed remarkably after mechanical stretching. In addition, baseline levels of four amino acids (ie, glutamate, glutamine, threonine, and glycine) and two organic acids (ie, lactate and citric acid) were significantly different in ILK knockdown compared with wild-type HPDLFs. CONCLUSION This study suggests that five amino acids (ie, alanine, glutamine, glutamate, glycine, and threonine) and three organic acids (ie, pyruvate, lactate, and citric acid) may act as cellular mediators for mechanical signals in HPDLFs. Among them, four amino acids (ie, glutamate, glutamine, threonine, and glycine) and two organic acids (ie, lactate and citric acid) may be closely linked to ILK.

[PMID: 31539181 DOI: 10.1111/jre.12698] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/05/2019] [Revised: 08/14/2019] [Accepted: 09/01/2019] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Bone remodeling during orthodontic treatment is achieved by the osteogenesis of human periodontal ligament cells (PDLCs) subjected to mechanical loadings. Transcriptional co-activator with PDZ-binding motif (TAZ) mediates bone remodeling in response to extracellular mechanical signals. This study aims to investigate the role of TAZ in osteogenesis of PDLCs under tensile strain. MATERIALS AND METHODS A uniaxial cyclic tensile stress (CTS) at 12% elongation and 6 cycles/min (5 s on and 5 s off) was applied to PDLCs. The osteogenic differentiation was determined by the protein and gene expressions of osteogenic markers using qRT-PCR and Western blot, respectively, and further by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and Alizarin Red S staining. The interaction of TAZ with core-binding factor α1 (Cbfα1) was examined by co-immunoprecipitation. The immunofluorescence histochemistry was used to examine the nucleus aggregation of TAZ and the reorganization of actin filaments. Moreover, small interfering RNA-targeting TAZ (TAZsiRNA) was used for TAZ inhibition and Y-27632 was employed for Ras homologue-associated coiled-coil protein kinase (ROCK) signaling blockage. RESULTS CTS clearly stimulated the nucleus accumulation of TAZ and its interaction with Cbfα1. CTS-induced osteogenesis in PDLCs was significantly abrogated by the infection with TAZsiRNA, as shown by the decreased stained nodules and protein expressions of Cbfα1, collagen type I, osterix, and osteocalcin, along with the inhibition of β-catenin signaling. Moreover, ROCK inhibition by Y-27632 hindered TAZ nucleus aggregation and its binding with Cbfα1, which subsequently lead to the decreased osteoblastic differentiation of PDLCs. CONCLUSIONS Taken together, we propose that TAZ nucleus localization and its interaction with Cbfα1 are essential for the CTS-induced osteogenic differentiation in PDLCs. And such TAZ activation by CTS could be mediated by ROCK signaling, indicating the pivot role of ROCK-TAZ pathway for PDLCs differentiation.

Arch Oral Biol 2019; 107:104495. [PMID: 31377584 DOI: 10.1016/j.archoralbio.2019.104495] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/14/2019] [Revised: 07/10/2019] [Accepted: 07/22/2019] [Indexed: 02/08/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Cyclic tensile force (CTF) modulates physiological responses of periodontal ligament (PDL) cells. PDL cells are mechanosensitive and are able to maintain tissue homeostasis; a process mediated by the expression of particular cytokines including interleukin 6 (IL6). It is unknown whether CTF-induced IL6 regulates the expression of MMPs, enzymes needed for tissue remodeling. DESIGN Human PDL cells were subjected to 10% elongation strain of CTF at a frequency of 60 rpm continuously for 6 h. RNA and proteins were extracted and analyzed for IL6 and MMP expression by quantitative real-time PCR and ELISA, respectively. Using a neutralizing anti-IL6 antibody and addition of recombinant human IL6 at concentrations of 0.1, 1, 10 ng.mL-1 were performed to clarify whether CTF-upregulated IL6 increased MMP expression. Inhibitors of intracellular signaling molecules were employed to reveal possible pathway(s) of IL6-induced MMP expression. RESULTS CTF-induced IL6 expression coincided with an increased MMP3 expression. A neutralizing anti-IL6 antibody attenuated the CTF-increased MMP3 expression, whereas stimulating the cells with recombinant human IL6 increased MMP3 expression. Both PI3K and MAPK pathways were essential in the IL6 induced expression of MMP3. CONCLUSION Our findings suggest a role of CTF in the modulation of expression of IL6 and MMP3 and thus in the regulation of homeostasis and remodeling of the periodontal ligament.

Abstract
AIMS To reduce remaining plaque niches due to dental malocclusion after periodontal treatment and to avoid reinflammation of periodontitis, severe anterior crowding can be treated orthodontically. The treatment indication is motivated by aesthetic and functional needs. In this study the biomechanical behaviour of crowded lower front teeth in reduced periodontium is analysed. METHODS Using the finite element (FE) method, a model of the mandible was constructed with an anterior crowding of 4 mm and a vertical bone loss of 4 mm in the front tooth area. A 0.3 mm (0.012″) round superelastic nickel titanium (NiTi) arch wire was fitted to an ideal positioned teeth set-up and was inserted into the brackets of teeth 34 to 44 in the crowded model. The premolars were used as the anchorage unit. Material parameters were adopted from previous investigations, including bone (homogenous, isotropic, E = 2 GPa), teeth (E = 20 GPa) and healthy periodontal ligament (PDL, bilinear elastic; E1 = 0.05 MPa; E2 = 0.2 MPa; ε12 = 7%). All simulations were compared to simulations with a physiological periodontal model to assess the effect of bone loss at teeth 42 to 32. Additionally, the influence of three arch wire materials (nonsuperelastic NiTi, superelastic NiTi and stainless steel) were analysed in a reduced model, including only brackets in position of the crowded front teeth, wire and ligatures. Wire force levels and stresses were determined to assess the influence of material variation. RESULTS Initial tooth mobility is increased by a factor of 2.5 in case of a moderate periodontal defect. Front teeth with reduced attachment display increased strains in the periodontal ligament up to a factor of 2. Forces in the model with reduced periodontium were decreased by a factor of 2. Comparing different aligning arch wires, stainless steel appears to have the highest force and stress levels. Force levels of this alloy were 7.5 times higher than with the superelastic NiTi wire. Force levels of nonsuperelastic NiTi appeared to be 1.8 times higher than superelastic NiTi. Calculated stresses with stainless steel were 5 times higher than with the nonsuperelastic NiTi and 10 times higher than with superelastic NiTi. CONCLUSION Periodontally reduced incisors 42 to 32 are associated with an increased load on periodontal tissue and increased level of tooth mobility during fixed orthodontic treatment. This has to be considered by reducing orthodontic force levels and by selecting mechanics that reduce the load to the tissue.

Abstract
Background Osteoclast precursor cells are constitutively differentiated into mature osteoclasts on bone tissues. We previously reported that the continuous stimulation of RAW264.7 precursor cells with compressive force induces the formation of multinucleated giant cells via receptor activator of nuclear factor κB (RANK)-RANK ligand (RANKL) signaling. Here, we examined the bone resorptive function of multinucleated osteoclasts induced by continuous compressive force. Material/Methods Cells were continuously stimulated with 0.3, 0.6, and 1.1 g/cm2 compressive force created by increasing the amount of the culture solution in the presence of RANKL. Actin ring organization was evaluated by fluorescence microscopy. mRNA expression of genes encoding osteoclastic bone resorption-related enzymes was examined by quantitative real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. Mineral resorption was evaluated using calcium phosphate-coated plates. Results Multinucleated osteoclast-like cells with actin rings were observed for all three magnitudes of compressive force, and the area of actin rings increased as a function of the applied force. Carbonic anhydrase II expression as well as calcium elution from the calcium phosphate plate was markedly higher after stimulation with 0.6 and 1.1 g/cm2 force than 0.3 g/cm2. Matrix metalloproteinase-9 expression decreased and cathepsin K expression increased slightly by the continuous application of compressive force. Conclusions Our study demonstrated that multinucleated osteoclast-like cells induced by the stimulation of RAW264.7 cells with continuous compressive force exhibit high dissolution of the inorganic phase of bone by upregulating carbonic anhydrase II expression and actin ring formation. These findings improve our understanding of the role of mechanical load in bone remodeling.

Compression and tension variably alter Osteoprotegerin expression via miR-3198 in periodontal ligament cells. BMC Mol Cell Biol 2019; 20:6. [PMID: 31041888 PMCID: PMC6449962 DOI: 10.1186/s12860-019-0187-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/23/2018] [Accepted: 03/19/2019] [Indexed: 12/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Osteoclasts play a critical role in bone resorption due to orthodontic tooth movement (OTM). In OTM, a force is exerted on the tooth, creating compression of the periodontal ligament (PDL) on one side of the tooth, and tension on the other side. In response to these mechanical stresses, the balance of receptor activator of nuclear-factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL) and osteoprotegerin (OPG) shifts to stimulate osteoclastogenesis. However, the mechanism of OPG expression in PDL cells under different mechanical stresses remains unclear. We hypothesized that compression and tension induce different microRNA (miRNA) expression profiles, which account for the difference in OPG expression in PDL cells. To study miRNA expression profiles resulting from OTM, compression force (2 g/cm2) or tension force (15% elongation) was applied to immortalized human PDL (HPL) cells for 24 h, and miRNA extracted. The miRNA expression in each sample was analyzed using a human miRNA microarray, and the changes of miRNA expression were confirmed by real-time RT-PCR. In addition, miR-3198 mimic and inhibitor were transfected into HPL cells, and OPG expression and production assessed. Results We found that certain miRNAs were expressed differentially under compression and tension. For instance, we observed that miR-572, − 663, − 575, − 3679-5p, UL70-3p, and − 3198 were upregulated only by compression. Real-time RT-PCR confirmed that compression induced miR-3198 expression, but tension reduced it, in HPL cells. Consistent with previous reports, OPG expression was reduced by compression and induced by tension, though RANKL was induced by both compression and tension. OPG expression was upregulated by miR-3198 inhibitor, and was reduced by miR-3198 mimic, in HPL cells. We observed that miR-3198 inhibitor rescued the compression-mediated downregulation of OPG. On the other hand, miR-3198 mimic reduced OPG expression under tension. However, RANKL expression was not affected by miR-3198 inhibitor or mimic. Conclusions We conclude that miR-3198 is upregulated by compression and is downregulated by tension, suggesting that miR-3198 downregulates OPG expression in response to mechanical stress.

Abstract
High-magnitude mechanical strain inhibits bone nodule formation by reducing expression of bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2), Runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2), and muscle segment homeobox 2 (Msx2). Mechanical strain also induces production of proinflammatory factor prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) by osteoblasts. We measured the effect of mechanical strain-induced PGE2 production on bone nodule formation and expression levels of bone formation-related factors. Osteoblast-like cells isolated from fetal rat calvariae were loaded with 18% cyclic tension force (TF) for 48 h in the presence or absence of NS-398, a selective inhibitor of cyclooxygenase-2. To investigate the effect of TF-induced PGE2 on bone formation, bone nodule area on day 21 was measured by von Kossa staining. BMP-2, Runx2, and Msx2 expression levels were examined at 1 day after TF loading. Bone nodule formation was significantly inhibited by TF but was restored to control level by PGE2 inhibition. Furthermore, TF loading-induced reductions in expressions of these factors were restored to control level by PGE2 suppression. These results indicate that PGE2 production induced by high-magnitude mechanical strain inhibits bone nodule formation by reducing expression levels of bone formation-related factors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Many in vitro studies have investigated the mechanism by which mechanical signals are transduced into biological signals that regulate bone homeostasis via periodontal ligament fibroblasts during orthodontic treatment, but the results have not been systematically reviewed. This review aims to do this, considering the parameters of various in vitro mechanical loading approaches and their effects on osteogenic and osteoclastogenic properties of periodontal ligament fibroblasts. METHODS Specific keywords were used to search electronic databases (EMBASE, PubMed, and Web of Science) for English-language literature published between 1995 and 2017. RESULTS A total of 26 studies from the 555 articles obtained via the database search were ultimately included, and four main types of biomechanical approach were identified. Compressive force is characterized by static and continuous application, whereas tensile force is mainly cyclic. Only nine studies investigated the mechanisms by which periodontal ligament fibroblasts transduce mechanical stimulus. The studies provided evidence from in vitro mechanical loading regimens that periodontal ligament fibroblasts play a unique and dominant role in the regulation of bone remodelling during orthodontic tooth movement. CONCLUSION Evidence from the reviewed studies described the characteristics of periodontal ligament fibroblasts exposed to mechanical force. This is expected to benefit subsequent research into periodontal ligament fibroblasts and to provide indirectly evidence-based insights regarding orthodontic treatment. Further studies should be performed to explore the effects of static tension on cytomechanical properties, better techniques for static compressive force loading, and deeper analysis of underlying regulatory systems.Cite this article: M.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of the present systematic review was to offer a timeline of the events taking place during orthodontic tooth movement(OTM). MATERIALS AND METHODS Electronic databases PubMed, Web of Science and EMBASE were searched up to November 2017. All studies describing the expression of signaling proteins in the periodontal ligament(PDL) of teeth subjected to OTM or describing the expression of signaling proteins in human cells of the periodontal structures subjected to static mechanical loading were considered eligible for inclusion for respectively the in-vivo or the in-vitro part. Risk of bias assessment was conducted according to the validated SYRCLE's RoB tool for animal studies and guideline for assessing quality of in-vitro studies for in-vitro studies. RESULTS We retrieved 7583 articles in the initial electronic search, from which 79 and 51 were finally analyzed. From the 139 protein investigated, only the inflammatory proteins interleukin(IL)-1β, cyclooxygenase(COX)-2 and prostaglandin(PG)-E2, osteoblast markers osteocalcin and runt-related transcription factor(RUNX)2, receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand(RANKL) and osteoprotegerin(OPG) and extracellular signal-regulated kinases(ERK)1/2 are investigated in 10 or more studies. CONCLUSION The investigated proteins were presented in a theoretical model of OTM. We can conclude that the cell activation and differentiation and recruitment of osteoclasts is mediated by osteocytes, osteoblasts and PDL cells, but that the osteogenic differentiation is only seen in stem cell present in the PDL. In addition, the recently discovered Ephrin/Ephs seem to play an role parallel with the thoroughly investigated RANKL/OPG system in mediating bone resorption during OTM.

Abstract
AIMS During orthodontic treatment, facilitating osteoclastic bone resorption in the alveolar bone exposed to the compressive force (CF) is an important factor for tooth movement. The present study investigated the effect of CF stimulation on the differentiation of RAW264.7 cells from precursors to mature osteoclasts. MAIN METHODS The cells were continuously stimulated with 0.3, 0.6, or 1.1 g/cm2 CF-which was generated by increasing the volume of culture medium in the wells of a 96-well plate-in the presence or absence of receptor activator of nuclear factor κB (RANK) ligand (RANKL) for 4 days. KEY FINDINGS In the presence of RANKL, the number of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP)-positive multinucleated cells and the mRNA levels of dendritic cell-specific transmembrane protein (DC-STAMP) and osteoclast-stimulatory transmembrane protein (OC-STAMP) were increased by application of 0.6 and 1.1 g/cm2 CF as compared to 0.3 g/cm2 CF. The mRNA level of RANK was upregulated whereas that of leucine-rich repeat-containing G-protein-coupled receptor (LGR)4-another RANKL receptor was downregulated by 0.6 and 1.1 g/cm2 CF as compared to 0.3 g/cm2 CF in the absence of RANKL. The proportion of cells with nuclear translocation of the nuclear translocation of nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT)c1 was increased by 0.6 and 1.1 g/cm2 CF in the presence of RANKL. SIGNIFICANCE Continuous application of CF induced the differentiation of RAW264.7 cells into TRAP-positive multinuclear cells by enhancing the expression of DC- and OC-STAMP and the nuclear translocation of NFATc1. This may result from the CF-induced increase in RANK and decrease in LGR4 expression.

Abstract
Jaw discrepancies and malrelations affect a large proportion of the general population and their treatment is of utmost significance for individuals' health and quality of life. The aim of their therapy is the modification of aberrant jaw development mainly by targeting the growth potential of the mandibular condyle through its cartilage, and the architectural shape of alveolar bone through a suture type of structure, the periodontal ligament. This targeted treatment is achieved via external mechanical force application by using a wide variety of intraoral and extraoral appliances. Condylar cartilage and sutures exhibit a remarkable plasticity due to the mechano-responsiveness of the chondrocytes and the multipotent mesenchymal cells of the sutures. The tissues respond biologically and adapt to mechanical force application by a variety of signaling pathways and a final interplay between the proliferative activity and the differentiation status of the cells involved. These targeted therapeutic functional alterations within temporo-mandibular joint ultimately result in the enhancement or restriction of mandibular growth, while within the periodontal ligament lead to bone remodeling and change of its architectural structure. Depending on the form of the malrelation presented, the above treatment approaches, in conjunction or separately, lead to the total correction of jaw discrepancies and the achievement of facial harmony and function. Overall, the treatment of craniofacial and jaw anomalies can be seen as an interplay of mechanical forces and adaptations occurring within temporo-mandibular joint and alveolar bone. The aim of the present review is to present up-to-date knowledge on the mechano-biology behind jaw growth modification and alveolar bone remodeling. Furthermore, future molecular targeted therapeutic strategies are discussed aiming at the improvement of mechanically-driven chondrogenesis and osteogenesis.

Abstract
AbstractBackgroundMechanical stimulation via acupuncture and tuina massage triggers various cell responses. This study aims to understand these cellular bio-physical mechanisms by investigating the effect of different stimulation intensities on cell viability and protein expression.MethodologyConnective tissue fibroblasts were cultured in vitro. Three varying intensities of mechanical strain stimulation were applied to the cells, either once or three times and compared with non-stimulated controls. Changes in fibroblast viability and fibroblast protein expression were observed.ResultsStrain stimulation intensity significantly increased fibroblast cell survival rate (p<0.01) to effectively improve cell viability. Moreover, the combined influence of both the strain stimulation intensity and number of stimulations on the fibroblast survival rate significantly differed (p<0.05). Strain intensity also significantly altered fibroblast protein expression between the three groups (p<0.0001). Cluster analysis showed that the medium-intensity strain stimulation posed the maximum influence on protein expression.ConclusionThe difference in cell viability and protein expression of the connective tissue fibroblast during the in vitro strain process reveals the cytobiological mechanism of basic medicinal mechanical stimulation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES There is increasing evidence that inflammation and biomechanical loading can influence the effects of bisphosphonates (BP). The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of tensile strain application combined with IL-1ß and clodronate or zoledronate on human periodontal ligament fibroblasts (HPdLF) in vitro. MATERIALS AND METHODS HPdLF were cultured with 10 nM IL-1ß and 5 μM clodronate or zoledronate for 48 h. Cells were applied to cyclic tensile strain (CTS; 3% elongation) for 12 h in vitro. Cell number was analyzed directly after CTS by MTT assay. Gene expression of receptor activator of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) was investigated using real-time PCR. MMP-8, TIMP-1, and PGE2 were measured by ELISA. Statistics were performed with SPSS (ANOVA, p < 0.05). RESULTS Zoledronate reduced the cell number of HPdLF (60.3 vs. 100%), which was significant when combined with IL-1ß. Combined with 3% CTS, this effect was voided and cell number increased over the level of the control cells. IL-1ß led to a 10-fold increase of COX-2 gene expression. Combined with CTS and zoledronate, this increase was enhanced to a gene expression 70-fold that of control cells with related PGE2 synthesis. Clodronate neither reduce the cell number nor enhanced the COX-2 gene expression. CTS increased MMP-8 protein synthesis. Combined with BP, this increase was voided. TIMP-1 protein synthesis was increased at all conditions under CTS. CONCLUSIONS Mechanical loading might activate cell metabolism and abolish BP- and inflammation-induced reduction of viability. Combination of mechanical loading, inflammation, and nitrogen-containing bisphosphonates can cause pro-inflammatory effects. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Periodontal inflammation should be treated initially before BP intake to prevent decreased cell viability of the periodontium and increased inflammation, which might be enhanced by the addition of mastication forces.

Abstract
During orthodontic treatment, periodontium remodeling of periodontitis patients under mechanical force was abnormal. We have previously confirmed the function impairment of periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) in the periodontitis microenvironment which might be involved in this pathological process. However, the response of PDLSCs in periodontitis microenvironment to mechanical force remains unclear. Therefore, in the present study, we introduced a Flexcell tension apparatus and investigated the response of PDLSCs obtained from periodontal tissues of periodontitis patients (PPDLSCs) and of those obtained from healthy periodontal tissues (HPDLSCs) to different magnitudes of static mechanical strain (SMS). PPDLSCs showed increased proliferation, decreased osteogenic activity, activated osteoclastogenesis, and greater secretion of inflammatory cytokines. Different magnitudes of SMS exerted distinct effects on HPDLSCs and PPDLSCs. An SMS of 12% induced optimal effects in HPDLSCs, including the highest proliferation, the best osteogenic ability, the lowest osteoclastogenesis, and the lowest secretion of inflammatory cytokines, while the optimal SMS for PPDLSCs was 8%. Excessive SMS damaged PPDLSCs function, including decreased proliferation, an imbalance between osteogenesis and osteoclastogenesis, and an activated inflammatory response. Our data suggest that PPDLSCs are more sensitive and less tolerant to SMS, and this may explain why mechanical force results in undesirable effects in periodontitis patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the influence of the same mechanical loading on osteogenesis and osteoclastogenesis in vitro. METHODS Primary osteoblasts, bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs, cultured in osteoinductive medium) and RAW264.7 cells cultured in osteoclast inductive medium were all subjected to a 1000 μstrain (μs) at 1 Hz cyclic mechanical stretch for 30 min (twice a day). RESULTS After mechanical stimulation, the alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, osteocalcin protein level of the osteoblasts and BMSCs were all enhanced, and the mRNA levels of ALP and collagen type I increased. Additionally, extracellular-deposited calcium of both osteoblasts and BMSCs increased. At the same time, the activity of secreted tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase, the number of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase-positive multinucleated cells, matrix metalloproteinase-9 protein levels of RAW264.7 cells and the extracellular calcium solvency all decreased. CONCLUSION The results demonstrated that 1000 μs cyclic mechanical loading enhanced osteoblasts activity, promoted osteoblastic differentiation of BMSCs and restrained osteoclastogenesis of RAW264.7 cells in vitro.

Abstract
A 41-year-old man had a significant loss of bone and supporting tissues with pathologic migration of several teeth and several missing teeth. He was treated with an interdisciplinary therapeutic protocol that included nonsurgical periodontal therapy based on strict control of supragingival plaque, subgingival periodontal therapy, orthodontic and endodontic treatment, and replacement of restorations. The orthodontic therapy was performed in a severely reduced bone support and the presence of pathological tooth migration after periodontal disease control. The interdisciplinary treatment protocol was the key to achieve a significant improvement in his facial and dental esthetics, masticatory function, and quality of life.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fluid shear stress (FSS) is a major type of mechanical stress that is loaded on human periodontal ligament cells (hPDLCs) during mastication and orthodontic tooth movement. This study aims to clarify the effect of FSS on the osteogenic differentiation of hPDLCs and to further verify the involvement of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling in this process. METHODS After isolation and characterization, hPDLCs were subjected to 2-hour FSS at 12 dynes/cm(2), and cell viability, osteogenic gene mRNA expression, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, secretion of Type I collagen (COL-I), and calcium deposition were assayed. The levels of phosphorylated p38 and phosphorylated extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) in response to FSS were detected by Western blot, and the involvement of ERK1/2 and p38 MAPK signaling pathways in hPDLC osteogenesis under FSS was investigated using the specific MAPK inhibitors U0126 (2Z,3Z)-2,3-bis[amino(2-aminophenylthio)methylene]succinonitrile,ethanol) and SB203580 (4-[4-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-(4-[methylsulfinyl]phenyl)-1H-imidazol-5-yl]pyridine). RESULTS The application of FSS on hPDLCs induced an early morphologic change and rearrangement of filamentous actin. ALP activity, messenger RNA (mRNA) levels of osteogenic genes, COL-I, and osteoid nodules were significantly increased by FSS. Moreover, ERK1/2 and p38 were activated in different ways after FSS exposure. U0126 and SB203580 completely blocked the FSS-induced increases in ALP activity and osteogenic gene mRNA expression and osteoid nodules formation. CONCLUSIONS FSS is an effective approach for stimulating osteogenic differentiation of hPDLCs. The ERK1/2 and p38 MAPK signaling pathways are involved in this cellular process.

Abstract
Occlusal force is an important stimulus for maintaining periodontal homeostasis. This is attributed to the quality of human periodontal ligament fibroblasts (hPDLFs) that could transfer occlusal force into biological signals modulating osteoblst differentiation. However, few studies investigated the mechanism of occlusal force-induced osteodifferentiation of hPDLFs. In our study, we used the cyclic mechanical tension (CMT) at 10% elongation with 0.5 Hz to mimic occlusal force, and explored its effects on osteogenesis of hPDLFs. Firstly, elevated expressions of several osteoblast marker genes (Runx2, ATF4, SP7, OCN, and BSP), as well as activated ERK1/2 pathway were detected during CMT loading for 1, 3, 6, 12, 18, and 24 h. To gain further insight into how CMT contributed to those effects, we focused on the classic ERK1/2-Runx2 pathway by inhibiting ERK1/2 and overexpressing Runx2. Our results reflected that Runx2 overexpression alone could induce osteodifferentiation of hPDLFs. Meanwhile, CMT loading could intensify while combined ERK1/2 blockage could weaken this process. Furthermore, we found that CMT promoted Runx2 transcription and phosphorylation via ERK1/2; protein level of phospho-Runx2 (p-Runx2), rather than Runx2, was in parallel with mRNA expressions of SP7, OCN, and BSP. Taken together, our study proved that p-Runx2, elevated by CMT via ERK1/2 pathway, is the predominate factor in promoting osteoblast differentiation of hPDLFs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate and compare the changes in human periodontal ligament fibroblasts (HPdLFs) and osteoblasts (HOBs) after the application of compressive force (CF) at two different strengths in vitro. MATERIALS AND METHODS HPdLF and HOB were exposed to CF with various strengths (5 and 10 %) using a Flexercell Compression Unit for 12 h in vitro. Viability was detected via 3-(4.5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2.5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) and apoptosis rate by transferase dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) assay. The gene expression of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), osteocalcin (OCN), osteoprotegerin (OPG), and receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL) was analyzed using reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Osteopontin (OPN), matrix metalloproteinase-8 (MMP-8), and tissue inhibition of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) were quantified by an ELISA. RESULTS Ten percent CF decreased viability, particularly in HOBs, but did not induce increased apoptosis. ALP gene expression increased the most after 5 % CF in HPdLFs and after 10 % CF in HOB. OCN was not affected by CF in either cell line. The highest RANKL/OPG ratio was measured after 5 % CF in both cell lines. OPN was upregulated in HOB by 5 %. HPdLFs showed an upregulation of MMP-8-synthesis and an increased MMP-8/TIMP-1 ratio. CONCLUSIONS HOBs have a greater effect on bone remodeling through the upregulation of OPN, whereas HPdLFs facilitate orthodontic tooth movement by influencing the extracellular matrix via the MMP-8/TIMP-1 ratio. CLINICAL RELEVANCE High CF in orthodontics should be avoided to prevent tissue damage, whereas moderate CF enables active tissue remodeling and tooth movement.

Abstract
Periodontal ligament (PDL) fibroblasts play an important role in preserving periodontal homeostasis and transmitting mechanical signals to alveolar bone. Connexin 43 (Cx43), a gap junction protein, is essential for bone homeostasis and regulates bone remodeling. However, the function of Cx43 in human PDL fibroblast-regulated bone remodeling has not yet been elucidated. In this study, human PDL fibroblasts were exposed to cyclic mechanical tension with a maximum 5% elongation for different durations. We then examined the expression of signaling molecules related to osteogenesis and osteoclastogenesis at both the mRNA and protein levels as well as the activity of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) in human PDL fibroblasts after loading. We found that mechanical tension increased Cx43, which further upregulated osteogenic (e.g., RUNX2, Osterix, and OPG) and down-regulated osteoclastogenic (e.g., RANKL) signaling molecules. Suppressing Cx43 gene (Gja1) by siRNA inhibited the increase in osteogenesis-related molecules but enhanced RANKL expression. Similar to Cx43, activated ERK1/2 was also enhanced by mechanical tension and suppressed by Cx43 siRNA. Inhibition of ERK1/2 signaling using PD98059 reduced the tension-regulated increase in osteogenesis-related molecules but enhanced that of osteoclastogenesis-related ones. These findings suggest that cyclic tension may involve into the osteogenic or osteoclastogenetic differentiation potential of human PDL fibroblasts via the Cx43-ERK1/2 signaling pathway.

Abstract
PURPOSE Orthodontic tooth movement occurs during the bone remodeling induced by therapeutic mechanical strain. It is important to investigate the relation between the strength of mechanical stress and bone formation activity. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of high-magnitude mechanical strain on bone formation in detail. MATERIALS AND METHODS Osteoblast-like cells isolated from fetal rat calvariae were loaded with 18% cyclic tension force (TF) for 48 h. To phenotypically investigate the effect of TF, we measured the number and the size of bone nodules stained by von Kossa technique on day 21 after cell seeding and determined the calcium content of bone nodules on day 14. Furthermore, we examined the gene expression of BMP-2, Runx2 and Msx2, which are important factors for bone nodule formation, on days 1, 4 and 7 after TF loading. RESULTS The maximum bone nodule size in the control group was 1620 and 719 μm in the TF group. Furthermore, the mean number of bone nodules sized over 360 μm in the TF group was significantly decreased compared to the control group. The calcium content was also significantly decreased to 42% by TF loading. The mRNA expression of BMP-2, Runx2 and Msx2 was decreased 1 and 4 days after TF loading. CONCLUSION The differentiation of bone forming progenitor cells into bone nodule forming cells was inhibited by TF due to the decreased expression of bone formation related factors such as BMP-2, Runx2 and Msx2.

Abstract
AbstractMicroRNAs (miRNAs) are important regulators of cell proliferation, differentiation and function. Mechanical strain is an essential factor for osteoblast proliferation and differentiation. A previous study revealed that a physiological mechanical tensile strain of 2500 microstrain (με) at 0.5 Hz applied once a day for 1 h over 3 consecutive days promoted osteoblast differentiation. However, the mechanoresponsive miRNAs of these osteoblasts were not identified. In this study, we applied the same mechanical tensile strain to in vitro cultivated mouse MC3T3-E1 pre-osteoblasts and identified the mechanoresponsive miRNAs. Using miRNA microarray and qRT-PCR assays, the expression patterns of miRNAs were evaluated and 5 of them were found to be significantly different between the mechanical loading group and the control group: miR-3077-5p, 3090-5p and 3103-5p were significantly upregulated and miR-466i-3p and 466h-3p were downregulated. Bioinformatics analysis revealed possible target genes for these differentially expressed miRNAs. Some target genes correlated with osteoblast differentiation. These findings indicated that the mechanical strain changed the expression levels of these miRNAs. This might be a potential regulator of osteoblast differentiation and responses to mechanical strain.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), produced by osteoblasts, catalyze the turnover of extracellular matrix (ECM) molecules in osteoid, and the regulation of MMP activity depends on interactions between MMPs and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs). We focused on the degradation process of ECM in osteoid that was exposed to mechanical strain, and conducted an in vitro study using MC3T3-E1 osteoblastic cells to examine the effects of tension force (TF) on the expression of MMPs and TIMPs, and activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways. DESIGN Cells were incubated on flexible-bottomed culture plates and stimulated with or without cyclic TF for 24 hours. The expression of MMPs and TIMPs was examined at mRNA and protein levels by real-time RT-PCR and Western blotting, respectively. The phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) 1/2, p38 MAPK, and stress-activated protein kinases/c-jun N-terminal kinases (SAPK/JNK) were examined by Western blotting. RESULTS TF decreased the expression of MMP-1, -3, -13 and phosphorylated ERK1/2. In contrast, TF increased the expression of TIMP-2, -3 and phosphorylated SAPK/JNK. The expression of MMP-2, -14, TIMP-1, -4 and phosphorylated p38 MAPK was unaffected by TF. MMP-1, -3 and -13 expression decreased in cells treated with the ERK inhibitor PD98059 compared with untreated control cells. The JNK inhibitor SP600125 inhibited the TF-induced upregulation of TIMP-2 and -3. CONCLUSIONS The results suggest that TF suppresses the degradation process that occurs during ECM turnover in osteoid via decreased production of MMP-1, -3 and -13, and increased production of TIMP-2 and -3 through the MAPK signaling pathways in osteoblasts.
