| Research Abstract |
In osteoblast isolated from MyD88 knockout mice, chemokine expressions induced by mechanical stress were examined. MyD88 is involved in the gene expression of MIP-2 or MCP-1 and MAP kinase activations by mechanical stresses in osteoblast. These results suggest that MyD88 plays a role not only in immune reactions but also in inflammatory reactions by mechanical stresses and may be important in orthodontic tooth movement.
