Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We clarified the method to induce periodontal ligament (PDL) stem cell-like cells (iPDLSC) from iPS cells, and identified the transcription factor, PAX9, and Fibrillin 2 as the factors to induce the differentiation of iPS cells to iPDLSC. We also developed the tube-like structure from the spheroids derived from human PDL stem-like cell line that we produced. This structure exhibited not only the PDL-like properties, but the features of cementum, blood vessels, and bone by inserting a hydroxyapatite (HAp) cylinder into the structure. Finally, we prepared the tube-like structure made of iPDLSC spheroids, and observed the engraftment of this structure including the HAp cylinder.
