Research Abstract

Mechanical stress is expected to be an effective role for regeneration of periodontal tissue. The effect of mechanical stress for the activity of the periodontal ligament cell was investigated by biochemical approach. Mechanical stress was loaded by Flexercell. The cell number (the amount of DNA), the activity of alkaliphosphatase, the concentration of type I collagen and type XII collagen were selected as biochemical markers. RT-PCR was adopted in the case of alkaliphosphatase, type I collagen and type XII collagen.
The periodontal ligament cell which was obtained by exfoliation from human extracted premolar tooth due to orthodontic treatment was cultivated in α-MEM cultivator. After third subculture, about one hundred thousand cells were disseminated per one well of Flexercell and stress was loaded to it. 20 seconds was decided as one loading cycle in which 10 seconds for on-stress, the other 10 seconds for off-stress. The expansion rate of cell was 18 %. The term of stress loading was 1, 3 and 5 days. After stress loading, stress loading groups and control groups were compared. The effect of stress loading term was also investigated. The results indicated that the periodontal ligament cell was activated and proliferated by relatively long term stress.
