Research Abstract |
To clarify the mechanism of Cd to destroy periodontal tissues、 several kind of cells including the stem cells derived from dental pulp were studied. The sensitivity of these cells、i.e. stem cells from human dental pulp、mouse embryonic stem cells、human gingival keratinocytes and fibroblasts、 to Cd were different among cells by DNA synthesis and MTT assay. Cd at concentration of 10-3mM induced apoptosis in DPS cells. The rate of apoptosis cells were 40-50 %. It was also suggested that Cd triggered the mitochondorial pathway and the cell membrane receptors causing apoptosis in DPS cells.
