Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the synergistic effect of epithelial rests of Malassez cells (ERM) and transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) on proliferation, cementogenic and osteogenic differentiation of stem cells derived from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHED). MATERIALS AND METHODS: SHED were co-cultured with ERM with/without TGF-β1. Then, SHED proliferation, morphological...
