Molecular Biological Comparison of Dental Pulp- and Apical Papilla-Derived Stem Cells [PDF]
Both the dental pulp and the apical papilla represent a promising source of mesenchymal stem cells for regenerative endodontic protocols. The aim of this study was to outline molecular biological conformities and differences between dental pulp stem cells (DPSC) and stem cells from the apical papilla (SCAP).

Establishing and characterizing human stem cells from the apical papilla immortalized by hTERT gene transfer [PDF]
Stem cells from the apical papilla (SCAPs) are promising candidates for regenerative endodontic treatment and tissue regeneration in general. However, harvesting enough cells from the limited apical papilla tissue is difficult, and the cells lose their ...

Sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 1-mediated odontogenic differentiation of mouse apical papilla-derived stem cells [PDF]
Background/purpose: Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) exhibits receptor-mediated physiological effects by facilitating the differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells toward the osteoblast lineage. This study aimed to determine the effect of S1P on odontogenic

The Differentiation Potential of Apical Papilla Cells in Relation to Tenascin-C and Syndecan-1 Expression and Their Potential Role in Regeneration [PDF]
Conclusions: Cell differentiation potential in the developing swine apex is progressively restricted to the newly formed dental pulp, whereas phenotypic expression of apical papilla cells remains undetermined unless the new microenvironment triggers cell

Different concentrations of fetal bovine serum affect cytokine modulation in Lipopolysaccharide-activated apical papilla cells in vitro [PDF]
Fetal bovine serum (FBS) is the most used supplement in culture media; however, it may interfere with in vitro assays via effects on cell proliferation and cytokine production.

Wnt-directed CXCL12-expressing apical papilla progenitor cells drive tooth root formation [PDF]
The tooth root is a critical component of the tooth anchored to surrounding alveolar bones. Tooth root formation is driven by cells in the apical papilla (AP) that generate new dentin-forming odontoblasts at the root-forming front. Mesenchymal stem cells

Histatin-1 promotes the expression of markers associated with odontoblastic differentiation in the dental pulp and apical papilla [PDF]
Complex tooth injuries, including dental caries, require the reestablishment of tissue architecture and functionality through the regeneration of cellular populations that enable tertiary dentin formation and the reestablishment of vascular and neural ...

m<sup>6</sup>A-Modified GATA2 Enhances Odontogenic Differentiation in Stem Cells from the Apical Papilla. [PDF]
Epigenetic modifications play a crucial role in regulating stem cell differentiation. Among these, N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification significantly impacts mRNA stability and translation. However, its role in dental stem cell differentiation remains largely unexplored.

KDM6B Negatively Regulates the Neurogenesis Potential of Apical Papilla Stem Cells via HES1. [PDF]
Stem cells from the apical papilla (SCAPs) are used to regulate the microenvironment of nerve defects. KDM6B, which functions as an H3K27me3 demethylase, is known to play a crucial role in neurogenesis. However, the mechanism by which KDM6B influences the neurogenesis potential of SCAPs remains unclear.
