Abstract: Objective: To investigate the changes of RANKL and wnt10b in the periodontal tissue during orthodontic tooth movement. Methods: 〖WT5”BZ〗Forty two healthy male SD rats were randomly divided into 7 groups according to the application loaded time points of 0h, 6h, 12h, 24h, 5d, 7d, and 14d. The group of 0h served as control and the Nickel-titanium closed-coils springs were used to produce 50g power to drag the first molars mesially. Real-time PCR (RT-PCR) technology was used to detect the expression of Wnt10b and RANKL. Results: 〖WT5”BZ〗RANKL and Wnt10b were both expressed in the pressure site in comparison with the control group according to the results of the RT-PCR. The expression of wnt10b mRNA was suppressed at the early stage, then increased, and reached the peak after 5-7 days. It returned to the normal level after 14 days. The expression of RANKL elevated at first, then peaked after 5-7 days, and decreased. Conclusion: 〖WT5”BZ〗Wnt10b and RANKL participated in periodontal tissue remodeling under the action of the orthodontic force.
