Bone resorption and inhibition of bone formation occur on the compressed side during orthodontic tooth movement. Bone formation inhibitory factors such as sclerostin (encoded by SOST) are secreted on the compressed side by periodontal ligament (PDL) cells. PDL cells control bone metabolism, and compressed PDL cells inhibit bone formation during orthodontic tooth movement. The aim of this study was to identify the inhibitory factors of bone formation in PDL cells.
