Outline of Final Research Achievements |
With the spheroid, a lot of cells cohered and became in a three-dimensional state. We isolated periodontal ligament cells from a human (hPDLMSCs) withdrawal tooth and we put the human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) together and made Co-cultured spheroids. We confirmed onset of gene of the stemness markers from this co-cultured spheroids from hPDLMSCs and HUVECs. We showed the high expression of bone related genes. Periodontal tissue defects were prepared in the maxillary first molars of rats. The furcation defects were created by removing the alveolar bone, periodontal ligament, and root cementum. Co-cultured spheroids were transplanted into the defects. Treatment with co-cultured spheroids enhanced alveolar bone, periodontal ligament and new cementum formation after transplantation.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
歯周病は歯周病細菌によって引き起こされる慢性炎症疾患であり、歯と歯肉の付着の喪失や歯槽骨の吸収が生じる。日本での罹患率は成人の70%以上と報告されており、歯周病による歯周組織破壊が進行すると、歯は脱落し、咬合力の低下による生活の質の低下が問題となる。現在、この破壊された歯周組織を再生させる方法は発表されているが、完全に回復させる治療法は存在しない。その理由として、歯周組織の複雑さがあげられる。 近年、歯根膜細胞に幹細胞が存在し、多分化能を有し、複雑な構造をした歯周組織の各組織に分化する可能性が示唆されており、それが臨床応用できれば、歯周病によって失われた歯周組織の再生が期待される。
