Irradiation of Adult Human Dental Pulp Stem Cells Provokes Activation of p53, Cell Cycle Arrest, and Senescence but Not Apoptosis
23 Mar 2010
Abstract excerpt
Adult human dental pulp contains stem cells (DPSCs) that are capable of differentiation into osteoblasts, odontoblasts, adipocytes, and neuronal-like cells. Because these cells have potential use in tissue regeneration, herein we characterized the response of DPSC lines to ionizing radiation (IR). These DPSC lines have been developed from the extracted molars of healthy donors. DPSCs were cultivated in a unique...
