Abstrakt: | Objectives: The objective of this study is to analyse the gene expression profile of the dental pulp (DP) of human premolars subjected to 7 and 28 days of orthodontic force (OF) in vivo by using RNA sequencing. The maxillary and mandibular DP were additionally compared. Methods: Healthy patients requiring orthodontic premolar extractions were randomly assigned to one of the three groups: control (CG) where no OF was applied, 7 and 28 days, where premolars were extracted either 7 or 28 days after the application of a 50-100 g OF. Total RNA was extracted from the DP and analysed via RNA-seq. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified using a false discovery rate and fold change threshold of <0.05 and ≥1.5, respectively. Functional analysis was performed. Results: After 7 days of OF, pulp reaction indicates immune response, hypoxia, DNA damage and epigenetic regulation. After 28 days, cell adhesion, migration, organization and tissue repair are evident. The maxillary and mandibular pulp tissues react differently to OF. The maxilla exhibits minimal alterations, mostly related to immune response at 7 days and tissue repair at 28 days, whereas the mandible shows mostly DNA damage and epigenetic regulation at 7 days and return to the original state at 28 days. Conclusions: This study demonstrates that the early reaction of the DP to OF is marked by immune response, hypoxia and DNA damage. In contrast, after 28 days, cell adhesion, migration, organization, tissue repair and dentine formation are observed. Maxillary and mandibular premolars react differently to OF: although the maxilla exhibits minimal alterations at both time points, the mandible mostly shows DNA damage, epigenetic regulation, and immune response at 7 days. These disparities could stem from different blood supplies or the lower maxillary bone density, potentially triggering faster biological changes. Our findings provide insights into the gene regulatory networks modulating DP response to OF. (© 2024 British Endodontic Society. Published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd.) |
