Abstract
Background
Previous studies revealed diabetes mellitus subjects tend to have persistent apical periodontitis. Regenerative stem cells therapy through endodontic procedure is hoped to be a solution. This study assessed bone regeneration in diabetic rats with apical periodontitis through histopathological analysis of osteoblasts and immunohistochemical analysis of runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2) and Osterix.
Methods
Diabetes mellitus and apical periodontitis was induced on 20 rats. Apical periodontitis was induced on mandibular right first molars under anesthesia. The teeth were left open for 7 days following access cavity and pulp extirpation, then the rats’ teeth were endodontically treated and randomly allocated into 4 groups (5 rats per group). The first and second groups was ended at 30 days (C30) and 60 days (C60) and labelled as control. The third and fourth groups was given umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells and ended at 30 days (T30) and 60 days (T60). The osteoblasts, Runx2 and Osterix were analyzed. ANOVA and Tukey HSD tests were used for analysis. Differences with p values < 0.05 were considered significant.
Results
The number of osteoblasts in the apical area in control groups (C30 and C60) and treatment groups (T30 and T60) showed a significant increase (p < 0.05). The expressions of Runx2 and Osterix in osteoblasts showed a significant increase among the control (C30 and C60) and treatment groups (T30 and T60) (p < 0.05).
Conclusion
Umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells improve bone regeneration in diabetic animal model with apical periodontitis, in terms of osteoblasts, Runx2 and Osterix.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Oral Biology and Craniofacial Research (JOBCR)is the official journal of the Craniofacial Research Foundation (CRF). The journal aims to provide a common platform for both clinical and translational research and to promote interdisciplinary sciences in craniofacial region. JOBCR publishes content that includes diseases, injuries and defects in the head, neck, face, jaws and the hard and soft tissues of the mouth and jaws and face region; diagnosis and medical management of diseases specific to the orofacial tissues and of oral manifestations of systemic diseases; studies on identifying populations at risk of oral disease or in need of specific care, and comparing regional, environmental, social, and access similarities and differences in dental care between populations; diseases of the mouth and related structures like salivary glands, temporomandibular joints, facial muscles and perioral skin; biomedical engineering, tissue engineering and stem cells. The journal publishes reviews, commentaries, peer-reviewed original research articles, short communication, and case reports.
