Intermittent compressive force stimulates bone resorption in orthodontic treatment. This study examined the molecular mechanism in human periodontal ligament (PDL) cells stimulated by an intermittent force. PDL cells were subjected to compressive force (2.0 or 5.0 g/cm(2)) for 2-4 days. Continuous or intermittent force was applied all day or for 8 hrs per day, respectively. At days 3 and 4, cell damage was less with intermittent force than with continuous force. At day 4, RANKL and IL-1beta expressions were greater with intermittent force than with continuous force. An IL-1 receptor antagonist inhibited the compressive force-induced RANKL expression. These findings indicate that IL-1beta is an autocrine factor regulating compressive force-induced RANKL expression in PDL cells, and that intermittent force can effectively induce RANKL in PDL cells with less cell damage.

D012333 RNA, Messenger RNA sequences that serve as templates for protein synthesis. Bacterial mRNAs are generally primary transcripts in that they do not require post-transcriptional processing. Eukaryotic mRNA is synthesized in the nucleus and must be exported to the cytoplasm for translation. Most eukaryotic mRNAs have a sequence of polyadenylic acid at the 3' end, referred to as the poly(A) tail. The function of this tail is not known for certain, but it may play a role in the export of mature mRNA from the nucleus as well as in helping stabilize some mRNA molecules by retarding their degradation in the cytoplasm.
