Ideal Concentration of Advanced-Platelet Rich Fibrin (A-PRF) Conditioned Media for Human Dental Pulp Stem Cells Differentiation

ABSTRACT

Abstract Objective: To discover the ideal concentration of Advanced Platelet Rich Fibrin (A-PRF) as modification of PRF, for human Dental Pulp Stem Cells (hDPSCs) differentiation. Material and Methods: hDPSCs were devided into five experimental groups Group I (control group) consist of hDPSCs cultured in 10% FBS, Group II consist of hDPSCs cultured in 1% A-PRF, Group III consist of hDPSCs cultured in 5% A-PRF, Group IV consist of hDPSCs cultured in 10% A-PRF and Group V consist of hDPSCs cultured in 25% A-APRF. All group have been observed for 7 and 14 days and each group had three biological replicates (triplo). Formation of the mineralized nodules was detected after 7 days by Alizarin red-based assay and Dentin Sialophosphoprotein (DSPP) expression after 7 and 14 days quantified by ELISA reader. Statistical analysis was proven with Kruskal-Wallis and post hoc Mann-Whitney test Results: The differentiation of hDPSCs in all A-PRF groups was significantly different on day-7 (p<0.05) compare to control group (Group I). There were no significant differences between all groups on day-14 (p>0.05). Significantly differences between Group II (1% A-PRF) and Group I (control), Group II (1% A-PRF) and Group III (5% A-PRF), also Group II (1% A-PRF) and Group V (25% A-PRF) was found from post hoc test analysis Conclusion: The ideal conditioned media concentration for differentiation of human dental pulp stem cells was on 1% up to 5% A-PRF group.
