Expression of MMP-8 and MMP-13 Genes in the Periodontal Ligament during Tooth Movement in Rats

Abstract: Periodontal ligament tissue is remodeled on both the tension and compression sides of moving teeth during orthodontic tooth movement. The present study was designed to clarify the hypothesis that the expression of MMP-8 and MMP-13 mRNA is promoted during the remodeling of periodontal ligament tissue in orthodontic tooth movement. We used the in situ hybridization method and semi-quantitative reverse-transcription/polymerase chain-reaction analysis to elucidate the gene expression of MMP-8 and MMP-13 mRNA. Expr… Show more

“…The results of the present study are consistent with those of previous studies on the effects of age on PDL width 4 and on changes in PDL width during the early phase of force application in young animals 22 ; a timerelated decrease in the PDL SA is evident in adult rat molars, as is a decreased or increased SA at compression or tension regions, respectively, at week 1 in young rats. Such a region-related difference in adult rats, however, started a week later, and was not significant until week 8, when a considerable amount of tooth movement and osteoclastic bone resorption occurred, as was also shown in earlier studies.…”

“…These results are consistent with previous research, that there is increasing of MMP expression during orthodontic tooth movement on both the pressure and tension side [6,[19][20][21]. Maxwell, et al (2001) stated that the condition of diabetes is often associated with the presence of infla-mmation, the formation of ROS and increasing of MMP 9 [22].…”

“…On the pressure side, the compression of periodontal ligament causes ligament fibers sagging, and fiber degradation appears to be increasing [37]. Periodontal ligament remodeling requires regulation of MMPs and TIMPs [21], and the expressions of TIMP 1 on the tension side were increased in osteoblasts during bone formation [38].…”

“…15 Also, mRNA of MMP-13 levels has been detected both on the tension and compression sides in rodents, and MMP-13 gene expression seems to be time-dependent and differentially regulated. 13 Reporting on the effect of drugs administered during induced tooth movement is still lacking standardized methodology in many aspects. Results reported are controversial and inconsistent leading to misinterpretation.…”
