Bone marrow-derived stromal cells are more beneficial cell sources for tooth regeneration compared with adipose-derived stromal cells.

Tooth loss is presently a global epidemic and tooth regeneration is thought to be a feasible and ideal treatment approach. Choice of cell source is a primary concern in tooth regeneration. In this study, the odontogenic differentiation potential of two non-dental-derived stem cells, adipose-derived stromal cells (ADSCs) and bone marrow-derived stromal cells (BMSCs), were evaluated both in vitro and in vivo. ADSCs and BMSCs were induced in vitro in the presence of tooth germ cell-conditioned medium (TGC-CM) prior to implantation into the omentum majus of rats, in combination with inactivated dentin matrix (IDM). Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was used to detect the mRNA expression levels of odontogenic-related genes. Immunofluorescence and immunohistochemical assays were used to detect the protein levels of odontogenic-specific genes, such as DSP and DMP-1 both in vitro and in vivo. The results suggest that both ADSCs and BMSCs have odontogenic differentiation potential. However, the odontogenic potential of BMSCs was greater compared with ADSCs, showing that BMSCs are a more appropriate cell source for tooth regeneration.

The effect of two different odontoblast inducer on the proliferation and apoptosis of rat adiposed-derived stem cells / 重庆医学

Objective To investigate the effect of two different odontoblast inducer on the proliferation and apoptosis of rat adiposed-derived stem cells.Methods Adiposed-derived stem cells were collected by enzyme digestion from inguinal fat pads of 4 days post natal mice.Immunocytochemistry was performed to identify the cells.MTT and flow cytometry were tested the prolifera-tion and apotosis of adiposed-derived stem cells by co-cultured with tooth germ cell conditioned medium(TGC-CM)or dentin non-collagenous protein medium (DNCPM).Results Cells displayed a fibroblast-like appearance and positively expressed CD44 and CD105 when cufured to the secend yeneration.After 3 day the cells polarity changed by co-cultured.Count of cells were no obvious change by TGC-CM co-cultured,while that ruduced significantly by DNCPM co-cultured.It confirmed that the proliferation rate of ADSCs in TGC-CM group and control group is higher than DNCPM group(P 0.05).Conclusion TGC-CM may have more advantage as inducer in rat adiposed-derived stem cells differentiate into dentin like cells than DNCPM.
