Mesenchymal Stem Cells Derived from Dental Tissues <i>vs</i> . Those from Other Sources: Their Biology and Role in Regenerative Medicine
1 Sept 2009
Abstract excerpt
To date, 5 different human dental stem/progenitor cells have been isolated and characterized: dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs), stem cells from exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHED), periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs), stem cells from apical papilla (SCAP), and dental follicle progenitor cells (DFPCs). These postnatal populations have mesenchymal-stem-cell-like (MSC) qualities, including the capacity for...
