Overview of the main biological mechanisms linked to changes in periodontal ligament stem cells and the inflammatory microenvironment
Periodontitis is a complex chronic inflammatory disease. The invasion of pathogens induces the inflammatory microenvironment in periodontitis. Cell...

MicroRNA-223 negatively regulates the osteogenic differentiation of periodontal ligament derived cells by directly targeting growth factor receptors
BackgroundMicroRNA (miRNA) is accepted as a critical regulator of cell differentiation. However, whether microRNA-223 (miR-223) could affect the...

Periodontal Disease
Gingivitis and periodontitis are inflammatory conditions caused by the formation and persistence of microbial biofilms on the hard, non-shedding... -
PSAT1 positively regulates the osteogenic lineage differentiation of periodontal ligament stem cells through the ATF4/PSAT1/Akt/GSK3β/β-catenin axis
BackgroundPeriodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) are important seed cells for tissue engineering to realize the regeneration of alveolar bone....

Galectin-1 Inhibited LPS-Induced Autophagy and Apoptosis of Human Periodontal Ligament Stem Cells
Periodontitis is a widespread human chronic inflammatory disease of the tooth-surrounding tissues, which induces the destruction of periodontium and...
-
Periodontal Cell Therapy: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
Background: Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by the loss of tooth-supporting tissues (or periodontium) leading to the... -
Cell Sheet Technology: An Emerging Approach for Tendon and Ligament Tissue Engineering
Tendon and ligament injuries account for a substantial proportion of disorders in the musculoskeletal system. While non-operative and operative...
