β-catenin and Its Relation to Alveolar Bone Mechanical Deformation – A Study Conducted in Rats With Tooth Extraction

The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between alveolar bone deformation and β-catenin expression levels in response to the mechanical load changed by dental extraction in adult rats. Twenty-four male rats (Rattus norvegicus albinus), Wistar linage, at 2 months of age, were used. The...
