Equisetum arvense Inhibits Alveolar Bone Destruction in a Rat Model with Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-Induced Periodontitis by Fumie Shiba, Hisako Furusho, Takashi Takata, Rika Shimizu, Mutsumi Miyauchi

“…These findings demonstrated that topical EA suppressed alveolar bone resorption in the rat model with E. coli-LPS-induced periodontitis by maintaining a balance in RANKL/OPG ratio via the pathways of NF-κB, Wnt/β-catenin, and Sema3A/Neuropilin-1. Therefore, EA possesses the potential to prevent bone destruction through inhibiting osteoclastogenesis attributed to cytokine burst under plaque accumulation.…”
