Research Abstract

For the past decade, it has been found that polyphosphoric acid used widely as a food additive affects the bioactivity of various cells. Therefore, for the development of new medical materials using the polyphosphoric acid, we examined effects of the sodium polyphosphate (Poly-P) on the proliferation and differentiation of dental pulp (DP) cells. As a result, Poly-P significantly accelerated the proliferation of DP cells and induced their differentiation into odontoblasts with low concentration. Our current data suggests that matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) -3 induced by Poly-P may be involved in the cell proliferation.
