Examination of the Effect of the Combined Use of Nd: YAG Laser Irradiation and Mechanical Force Loading on Bone Metabolism Using Cultured Human Osteoblasts.


ABSTRACT: Introduction: In recent years, laser irradiation in the near-infrared ray (NIR) area has been reported to promote bone healing. There are also reports that laser irradiation accelerates orthodontic tooth movement. In this study, we investigated the effect of NIR laser irradiation and mechanical stimulation on osteoblasts. Methods: We seeded osteoblast-like cells and laser irradiation was performed 24 hours after cell seeding. In addition, a control group not receiving anything, a group receiving only Nd: YAG (neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet) laser irradiation, a group receiving only centrifugal loading, and a group receiving both Nd: YAG laser irradiation and centrifugal force loading were set, and after 24 hours and after 48 hours, cells were collected and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was performed. Results: 24 hours after laser irradiation, the gene expression of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), the receptor activator of NF-?B ligand (RANKL) and osteoprotegerin (OPG) was significantly higher in the 2.0 W group than in the control group. In addition, the RANKL/OPG ratio was higher in the 2.0 W group than in the control group. Also, in the group using laser irradiation and centrifugal loading in combination, 24 hours after laser irradiation, ALP and OPG showed significantly higher values than those in the centrifugal load only group. Furthermore, the RANKL/OPG ratio also showed high values. Conclusion: These results suggest that osteoblast-like cells activate genes related to bone metabolism by combining mechanical stimulation and laser irradiation. This helps to elucidate the influence of laser irradiation during tooth movement.
