Quantitative analysis of matrix metalloproteinase-1 gene expression in cultured fibroblasts subjected to centrifugal forces

Quantitative analysis of matrix metalloproteinase-1 gene expression in cultured fibroblasts subjected to centrifugal forces

Mechanical stress caused by orthodontic appliances transmits forces directed towards the periodontal ligament (PDL) and bone causing tooth movement. Forces are initially transmitted to the PDL cells which are embedded in the extracellular matrix. The PDL and bone are mainly composed of collagen type...
