Research Abstract |
The purpose of this project was to discover the method to collect osteogenic cells in gingival tissues. Phenotype of human gingival cells was heterogenic, and we could not uniformly divide them by MACS. Among tested antibodies, anti-CD166 induced one of gingival cells and mesenchymal stem cells as well. Anti-CD166 might bind to the receptor of the cells which have the ability for osteogenic differentiation. MACS might show additive role for selection of these osteogenic progenitor cells.
