Abstract:Glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) exhibits extrapancreatic effects through the receptor for GIP (GIPR). In this study, we used Ni-Ti Closed Coil Spring (Ni-Ti) in GIPR-deficient mice (GIPRKO) and wild-type mice (WT) to investigate the effect of GIP on force-induced bone remodeling due to orthodontic tooth movement. It was investigated. Ni-Ti was attached between the maxillary bone and the maxillary left first molar (M1) of GIPRKO and WT, and mechanical load was applied by pulling the M1 in the… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
