Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Chronic periodontitis is an intraoral infectious disease that affects the nation with high prevalence. We see a lot of patients being forced to extract their teeth because of inflammatory bone resorption. To promote fundamental research of novel cell therapy using mesencymal stem cells, we established stem cell lines from the bone marrow of GFP transgenic mice and constructed a new expression vector targeting inhibition of several inflammatory cytokines. We expect that those new tools promote novel cell therapy in periodontal research.
