Transcriptome sequencing technology and its application in oral diseases, dental implants and regeneration / 中国组织工程研究

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Since the application of transcriptome sequencing technology has made remarkable achievements in the research of melanoma and breast cancer, transcriptome sequencing technology has become a hot research method in scientific research and widely used in the field of stomatology. OBJECTIVE: To review the development of transcriptome sequencing technology and its application in various disciplines of stomatology through searching, screening and reading literature. METHODS: A search of CNKI, CBM and PubMed was performed for relevant literature published from 2015 through 2020. The search terms were “transcriptome, sequencing technology, RNA-seq, microarray, oral cancers, OSCC, periodontal, caries, pulp disease, tooth development, DPSCs, PDLSCs, orthodontics, implant” in English and Chinese, respectively. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 72 literatures were included to review the development of transcriptome sequencing technology and its application in the field of stomatology. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: In the development of transcriptome sequencing technology, RNA-seq technology has the greatest advantage in scientific research, because of its high accuracy, high throughput and low price. In the field of stomatology, this technology has been used in the research of oral squamous cell carcinoma, periodontitis, dental pulp disease, tooth regeneration, orthodontics and dental implantation, and has achieved some achievements. However, the current research on the same kind of disease does not reflect the relationship between the various studies, and the research content is limited. It is believed that more discoveries can be yielded in stomatology by exploring the relationship between different studies and expanding the research content.
