Research Abstract |
Gravity loading (G-loading) was applied to human periodontal ligament (PDL) as a model of mechanical stress. ERK was phosphorylated after 5 min by G-loading at 7G and the phosphorylation of ERK was observed with ATP treatment to the cells at 5 min. G-loading also induced ATP in PDL. An inhibitor of purenargic receptor diminished ERK phosphorylation by G-loading and UTP, P2Y specific agonist induced ERK phosphoryaltion. Thus, G-loading induced ERK phophrylation via ATP and P2Y receptor.
