[The distribution of nitric oxide synthetase in Vcx and its relation with the expression of FOS induced by teeth movement in rats].
It was studied the central role of nitric oxide(NO) during experimental teeth movement and the relation between nitric oxide synthetase (NOS) positive neurons and FOS like immunoreactivity (FLN) with the NADPH-diaphorase histochemistry and immunocytochemical reaction method. Results indicated that NOS positive neurons and FLN showed typical distribution in Vcx and there was some overlap between them. It suggests that NO is involved in the central modulation of the stimulating message of teeth movement, and which further explains the central modulation mechanism of experimental teeth movement in rats.
