In a rabbit mandibular DO model, expression of BMPs 2, 4, 5, 6, but not BMP-3, was observed continuously during distraction phase, and reduced rapidly after the completion of distraction.

In a rabbit DO model, apoptosis is found to be closely related to bone formation and remodeling. Apoptosis may be an important regulatory factor for bone regeneration during DO.

This paper explains the mechanisms of mechanical strain in bone homeostasis. Tensile stain exerts anti-inflammatory and proinflammatory effects in a magnitude-dependent manner, and NF-kB signal transduction pathway is central to the pro-and anti-inflammatory effects of tensile strain.

Experimental study shows that distraction osteogenesis not only promotes angiogenesis at the distraction site, but also leads to increased VEGF and its receptors expressions at distant sides.

Sera from patients undergoing fracture treatment promoted osteoblastic cell proliferation and contained high levels of TGF-β and IGF-1. These data suggest mitogens are increased in the systemic circulation during bone healing.

A clinical study examined periosteal behavior using metal markers and radiographs in patients who underwent DO treatment. In most cases, the periosteum acts as elastic sleeve and attached to the nearby cortex early during DO.

Int J Oral Maxillofac Surg 2003, 32:296-304. This paper has shown that stiffness of the distraction regenerate does not correlate with plain radiographic and ultrasound data in an experimental minipig mandibular DO model.

Clinical study demonstrated that ultrasound is a useful and accurate method to evaluate bone fill in mandibular distraction osteogenesis patients.

This research paper has shown zoledronic acid increased regenerate volume, mineralization, and strength and prevented osteopenia over a 6-week period in a rabbit DO model. However, zoledronic acid has a dose-related negative effect on longitudinal growth in the young rabbits.
