Research Abstract |
Gene expression of the pressure zone of periodontal ligament cells(PDL) during orthodontic tooth movement in vivo was observed. Heat shock protein A1A(HSPA1A) in the pressure zone of the PDL was higher during 6 h of tooth movement than that in the control group. These results strongly suggest that expression of HSPA1A in the PDL during the early stage of tooth movement is a critical factor for tissue reaction.
