| Research Abstract |
this study, we constructed the periodontal system biology network database (PsBND) and analyzed the PsBND database comparing with other gene expression databases in order to identify periodontal ligament-specific genes. We found novel Periostin isoforms, glutamate-signaling associated molecules induced by mechanical stress and PLAP-1 periodontal ligament-specific. Functional analysis revealed that these molecules harmonized to keep homeostasis of periodontal ligament tissues.
