Impact of Leptin on the Expression Profile of Macrophages during Mechanical Strain In Vitro

Impact of Leptin on the Expression Profile of Macrophages during Mechanical Strain In Vitro

Childhood obesity is a growing problem in industrial societies and associated with increased leptin levels in serum and salvia. Orthodontic treatment provokes pressure and tension zones within the periodontal ligament, where, in addition to fibroblasts, macrophages are exposed to these mechanical lo...
