Corticotomies are now an integral part of the orthodontist's therapeutic arsenal in adult orthodontics. In recent years, the number of publications about different surgical techniques has increased significantly. This shows that practitioners and patients have a common interest. It is now accepted that corticotomies cause a regional acceleratory phenomenon, which enables a faster dental movement, a reduction in treatment time, as well as a reduction in the risk of root resorption. The perspective of osteogenesis induced by corticotomies has already been mentioned in literature. It could provide a real advantage in maintaining the periodontium, reducing the risk of fenestration or dehiscence and the stability of long-term treatment by increasing the dental bone envelope. Through a clinical case, treated by mini- invasive surgical technique (as described in the previous article), we highlight the potential for osteogenesis induced by alveolar corticotomies and the utility of this procedure in adults.

Nuclear morphology, which modulates chromatin architecture, plays a critical role in regulating gene expression and cell functions. While most research has focused on the direct effects of nuclear morphology on cell fate, its impact on the cell secretome and surrounding cells remains largely unexplored, yet is especially crucial for cell-based therapies. In this study, we fabricated implants with a micropillar topography using methacrylated poly(octamethylene citrate)/hydroxyapatite (mPOC/HA) composites to investigate how micropillar-induced nuclear deformation influences cell paracrine signaling for osteogenesis and cranial bone regeneration.

Osteomyelitis has gradually become a catastrophic complication in orthopedic surgery due to the formation of bacterial biofilms on the implant surface and surrounding tissue. The therapeutic challenges of antibiotic resistance and poor postoperative osseointegration provide inspiration for the development of bioactive implants. We have strategically designed bioceramic scaffolds modified with (LR) and bacteriophages (phages) to achieve both antibacterial and osteogenic effects.

The periodontal ligament (PDL) is a connective tissue, and PDL cells have a potential to differentiate into cementoblasts, osteoblasts, and gingival fibroblasts. This study investigated whether transcription factor c-Myb could induce differentiation of PDL cells for periodontal regeneration. PDL cells were isolated from extracted teeth and cultured.

Plp1-lineage Schwann cells (SCs) of peripheral nerve play a critical role in vascular remodeling and osteogenic differentiation during the early stage of bone healing, and the abnormal plasticity of SCs would jeopardize the bone regeneration. However, how Plp1-lineage cells respond to injury and initiate the vascularized osteogenesis remains incompletely understood. Here, by employing single-cell transcriptional profiling combined with lineage-specific tracing models, we uncover that Plp1-lineage cells undergoing injury-induced glia-to-MSCs transition contributed to osteogenesis and revascularization in the initial stage of bone injury.

To clarify the roles and mechanisms of adipokine chemerin in exercise-induced bone improvements in type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) mice and mice fed on high fat diet (HFD). DM mice were established by HFD+streptozotocin injection, exogenous chemerin was supplemented prior to running, and found that exogenous chemerin reversed 6-week exercise-induced improvements in cancellous bone parameters in DM mice. While adipose-specific chemerin knockout improved microstructure and mass of cancellous bone in HFD mice and further increased exercise-induced bone improvements, accompanied with promoted osteogenesis and inhibited osteoclasis represented as the changes of RANKL, M-CSF, Runx2, Osterix, OPG, ALP and CTSK.
