Root canal dressings for revascularization influence in vitro mineralization of apical papilla cells

J. appl. oral sci; 27 (), 2019
Abstract Endodontic revascularization is based on cell recruitment into the necrotic root canal of immature teeth after chemical disinfection. The clinical outcome depends on the ability of surviving cells from the apical tissue to differentiate and promote hard tissue deposition inside the dentinal wall...

Cytotoxicity of intracanal dressings on apical papilla cells differ upon activation with E. faecalis LTA

J. appl. oral sci; 27 (), 2019
Abstract Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the cytotoxic effects of modified triple antibiotic paste and an experimental composition using calcium hydroxide on lipoteichoic acid (LTA)-primed apical papilla cells (APC). Material and Methods Human APC were tested for in vitro cytotoxic...

Extracellular calcium increases fibroblast growth factor 2 gene expression via extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 and protein kinase A signaling in mouse dental papilla cells

J. appl. oral sci; 26 (), 2018
Abstract We previously reported that elevated extracellular calcium (Ca2+) levels increase bone morphogenetic protein 2 expression in human dental pulp (hDP) cells. However, it is unknown whether extracellular Ca2+ affects the expression of other growth factors such as fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2). ...
