Abstract: Objective: To investigate the effects of PTEN on proliferation and apoptosis of periodontal ligament cells induced by hydrogen peroxide. Methods: Human periodontal ligament cells were isolated and cultured in vitro, and then transfected with PTEN small interfering RNA or small interfering RNA negative control. After H2O2 treatment, PTEN expression was detected in cells by Western blot. Results: PTEN expression was inhibited in human periodontal ligament cells transfected with PTEN small interfering RNA. Conclusion: Interference of PTEN expression could inhibit the apoptosis and the proliferation of human periodontal ligament cells induced by H2O2.

Key words: Periodontal ligament cells, Proliferation, Apoptosis , Phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome ten, Hydrogen peroxide
