Research Abstract |
We have examined the mechanism of human skeletal muscle stem cells differentiation to odontoblasts for the purpose of dentin regeneration. Morphological analysis indicated that retinoic acid (RA) and bone morphogenetic protein-4 (BMP-4) induced differentiation to the odontogenic pathway. Differentiated cells showed DSPP and Enamelysin; both markers of odontoblast differentiation. We also found significant integrin α1β1, αVβ1 and αVβ3 expression with increased adhesion and motility on collagen type-I substrates. These interactions with the extracellular matrix (ECM) are indicative of dental pulp wound healing. Moreover, differentiated cells was injected showed DSP and osteo-dentin in rats.
