摘 要:The dental pulp has irreplaceable roles in maintaining healthy teeth and its regeneration is a primary aim of regenerative *** study aimed to replicate the characteristics of dental pulp tissue by using cranial neural crest(CNC)-like cells(CNCLCs);these cells were generated by modifying several steps of a previously established method for deriving NC-like cells from induced pluripotent stem cells(iPSCs).CNC is the anterior region of the neural crest in vertebrate embryos,which contains the primordium of dental pulp cells or *** produced CNCLCs showed approximately 2.5-12,000-fold upregulations of major CNC marker ***,the CNCLCs exhibited remarkable odontoblastic differentiation ability,especially when treated with a combination of the fibroblast growth factors(FGFs)FGF4 and *** FGFs induced odontoblast marker genes by 1.7-5.0-fold,as compared to bone morphogenetic protein 4(BMP4)*** a mouse subcutaneous implant model,the CNCLCs briefly fated with FGF4+FGF9 replicated dental pulp tissue characteristics,such as harboring odontoblast-like cells,a dentin-like layer,and vast neovascularization,induced by the angiogenic self-assembling peptide hydrogel(SAPH),*** acts as a versatile biocompatible scaffold in the canal *** study demonstrated a successful collaboration between regenerative medicine and SAPH technology.
