Research Abstract |
We characterized dental pulp cells in comparison with osteoblasts and explored the mechanisms of calcification. We found that densely cultured dental pulp cells exhibited stronger ECM (extracellular matrix) calcification activity than osteoblasts. A microarray analysis showed the overall gene expression in dental pulp cells to be similar to that in osteoblasts, though dental pulp cells expressed higher level of annexin A8. Then, we examined the effect of overexpression and knockdown of annexin A8 on ECM calcification in osteoblasts and dental pulp cells. Overexpression of annexin A8 remarkably induced ECM calcification in osteoblasts. In contrast, knockdown of annexin A8 in dental pulp cells suppressed ECM calcification. We transplanted three-dimensional culture of dental pulp cells into immunocompromised mice and found that the grafts generated bone in which hematopoiesis was carried out. Taken together, these results suggest that transplanted dental pulp cells exert bone regenerative activity through the expression of annexin A8.
