Research Abstract |
The aim of this study was to elucidate cellular events during pulp tissue repair and reparative dentin formation after tooth injury. The up-regulation ofα-smooth muscle actin(SMA) was characteristically observed in fibroblastic cells in an organ culture system of rat molar. Thy-1-positive dental pulp cells localized in the subodontoblastic layer had the ability to differentiate into hard tissue-forming cells. Theα-SMA-positive and/or Thy-1-positive cells may play a role in tissue repair and regeneration of dental pulp.
