Effects of Sirtuin 1 on the proliferation and osteoblastic differentiation of periodontal ligament stem cells and stem cells from apical papilla

Genetics and Molecular Research, 2016
The function of SIRT1 in the proliferation and osteoblastic differentiation of dental stem cells is unclear. The aim of this study was to assess the roles of SIRT1 in these processes using periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) and stem cells from apical papilla (SCAPs).

Reviewing the benefits and clinical outcomes of oral fibroblasts over mesenchymal stem cells for repairing periodontal defects during or after orthodontic tooth movement

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Orthodontic therapy applies forces to teeth, causing an inflammatory reaction in the periodontal ligament. This is repaired by remodeling of the periodontium, allowing tooth displacement. Although orthodontic therapy is mostly initiated during childhood and adolescence, the number of adults seeking this treatment is increasing as our society's

Blood clot in Regenerative Endodontic Therapy of Immature Permanent Teeth: a review of the literature

Mexican Journal of Medical Research ICSA
Pulp necrosis is diagnosed when the pulp is presented asymptomatic in response to pulp tests. Its conventional management in immature permanent teeth is by apexification. However, this treatment has the disadvantage of weakening the root walls tending to

Germin and germin-like proteins: evolution, structure, and function [PDF]

, 2008
Germin and germin-like proteins (GLPs) are encoded by a family of genes found in all plants. They are part of the cupin superfamily of biochemically diverse proteins, a superfamily that has a conserved tertiary structure, though with limited similarity ...
