ASTX administration suppresses periodontal tissue degradation in STZ-induced diabetic mice. (A) H & E staining exhibiting hyperglycemia-triggered periodontal degradation and its suppression by supplemental ASTX in the interproximal and furcation region of maxillary molars (M1 to M3) in STZ-injected mice 60 days after hyperglycemia induction (100× magnification). G, gingiva. Bar = 200 μm. The distance (μm) between CEJ and ABC in the maxillary regions of (B) M1 to M2 and (C) M2 to M3 was calculated using ImageJ program (n = 5). ** p < 0.01 and *** p < 0.001 vs. control group; # p < 0.05 vs. STZ group.
