From: Mechanical force induces mitophagy-mediated anaerobic oxidation in periodontal ligament stem cells
Application of mechanical force altered the expression of oxidation-related proteins in vivo. A, B The expression of LDH and COX4 in the periodontal ligament of Wistar rats after 0, 1, 3, and 7 days of tooth movement, visualized by immunohistochemical staining. Scale bar = 100 μm. C, D The expression of LDH and COX4 in the periodontal ligament of Wistar rats after 0, 1, 3, and 7 days of tooth movement visualized by immunofluorescence staining. Scale bar = 100 μm. B: alveolar bone, PL: periodontal ligament, T: tooth. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001, ****P < 0.0001. ns no significance
