Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to characterize the radiobiological properties of stem/progenitor cells derived from apical papilla-derived cells (APDCs) compared to bulk APDCs. METHODS: APDCs were isolated from freshly extracted human third molars with immature apices. Multipotent spheres, which are thought to contain an enriched population of stem/progenitor cells, were formed from the APDCs, using a...
