Pulsed electromagnetic fields inhibit mandibular bone deterioration depending on the Wnt3a/β-catenin signaling activation in type 2 diabetic db/db mice
pubmed: wnt1 2022-09-23
Summary:
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients have compromised mandibular bone architecture/quality, which markedly increase the risks of tooth loosening, tooth loss, and failure of dental implantation. However, it remains lacks effective and safe countermeasures against T2DM-related mandibular bone deterioration. Herein, we studied the effects of pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF) on mandibular bone microstructure/quality and relevant regulatory mechanisms in T2DM db/db mice. PEMF exposure (20 Gs,...
