ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the influence of lactational dioxin exposure (2, 3, 7, 8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dixon, TCDD) on development of alveolar bone in SD rat offspring.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The rats of TCDD exposure group and control group were sacrificed and the alveolar bone with molars of PD60 rats in the two groups were embedded in resin. The sections were observed by fluorescent microscope. The alveolar bone formation was evaluated by histological examination, tetracycline fluorescence marker and quantitative histomorphometry. The indices of quantitative histomorphometry were compared.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The trabecular structure of alveolar bone was looser in TCDD exposure group than in the control group. The tetracycline fluorescence markers were more disorganized in TCDD group. The indices of quantitative histomorphometry of alveolar bone between two groups showed significantly different.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Lactational 2,3,7,8-TCDD exposure decreased the quality and quantity of alveolar bone in SD rat offspring. It is suggested that dioxins exposure may interrupt the spatial configuration.</p>
