ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
The purpose of this study was to examine growth-promoting effects of myo-inositol nutritional supplementation on the mandible in experimental animals.METHODS:
Mice were fed on diets that contained various concentration of myo-inositol for 3 to 12â¯weeks. The length of the mandible, maxilla, and femur were measured on µCT images. The mandible and tibia were examined histologically and immunohistochemically. The effects of myo-inositol on cell proliferation and chondrocytic differentiation were examined using ATDC5 cells.RESULTS:
Myo-inositol supplementation had no effects on body weight, length, and maxilla and femur lengths. However, the length of mandible and the thickness of the mandibular condylar cartilage (MCC) were increased by myo-inositol supplement. Microarray analysis revealed that Pik3cd was highly expressed in MCC as compared to that in the cartilage of the tibial growth plate, which was confirmed by real-time RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry. ATDC5 cells also highly expressed Pik3CD. Myoinositol induced increases in cell proliferation and chondrocytic differentiation in ATDC5 cells. The addition of a PIK3CD inhibitor blocked the induction of cell proliferation by myo-inositol in ATDC5 cells.CONCLUSIONS:
Nutritional supplementation with myo-inositol in growing mice augmented mandibular endochondral growth without any systemic effects. The specific promotion of mandibular growth by myoinositol is primarily dependent on the specific intensive expression of PIK3CD in the MCC.Palavras-chave
