Hematopoietic progenitor cells specifically induce a unique immune response in dental pulp under conditions of systemic inflammation

Heliyon, 2022
Teeth are exposed to various stimuli, including bacterial, thermal, and physical stimuli. Therefore, immune cells present in the normal dental pulp and the immune response to these stimuli have been studied.

VEGFA promotes odonto/osteoblastic differentiation in dental pulp stem cells via ERK/p38 signaling

Journal of Dental Sciences
Background/purpose: Vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA) is a potent angiogenic factor and an essential growth factor for vascular endothelial cells, but its effects on dental pulp stem cells, such as stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous ...

Clinical Potential and Current Progress of Dental Pulp Stem Cells for Various Systemic Diseases in Regenerative Medicine: A Concise Review

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2019
Dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) are mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) that have multipotent differentiation and a self-renewal ability. They have been useful not only for dental diseases, but also for systemic diseases.

Early diagnosis of aortic calcification through dental X-ray examination for dental pulp stones

Scientific Reports, 2023
Vascular calcification, an ectopic calcification exacerbated by aging and renal dysfunction, is closely associated with cardiovascular disease. However, early detection indicators are limited.

Methylation and PTEN activation in dental pulp mesenchymal stem cells promotes osteogenesis and reduces oncogenesis

Nature Communications, 2019
Lineage commitment and tumorigenesis, traits distinguishing stem cells, have not been well characterized and compared in mesenchymal stem cells derived from human dental pulp (DP-MSCs) and bone marrow (BM-MSCs).

MicroRNA-27a transfected dental pulp stem cells undergo odonto/osteogenic differentiation via targeting DKK3 and SOSTDC1 in Wnt/BMP signaling in vitro and enhance bone formation in vivo

Journal of Translational Medicine
Background MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play a crucial role in cell differentiation through epigenetic regulation of gene expression. In human dental pulp cells, we have identified miRNA-27a being upregulated under inflammatory conditions.

Effect of repetitive up-and-down movements on torque/force generation, surface defects and shaping ability of nickel-titanium rotary instruments: an ex vivo study

BMC Oral Health
Background The screw-in effect is a tendency of a nickel-titanium (NiTi) rotary endodontic file to be pulled into the canal, which can result in a sudden increase in stress leading to instrument fracture, and over-instrumentation beyond the apex.
