Research Abstract

It is known that Neutrophil Elastase is one of the neutral proteinase and it degrade foreign objects at the inflammatory situation. The proteinase increased in the periodontal ligament which supports teeth, and it degraded non-collagenous matrix of periodontal ligaments. At this experiment, we demonstrated that the neutrophil elastase related with the degradation of periodontal ligament and bone matrix. Additionally, we implied a possibility that the inhibitor of neutrophil elastase restrained the differentiation of osteoclasts, moreover, the inhibitor suppressed a degradation of periodontal ligaments.
