ABSTRACT: Introduction
The release of trophic factors from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) is critical for tissue regeneration. A systematic investigation of the regenerative potential of trophic factors from different MSCs, however, has not been performed. Thus, in the present study, the regenerative potential of conditioned medium (CM) from dental pulp, bone marrow, and adipose tissue-derived CD31(-) side population (SP) cells from an individual source was compared in an ectopic tooth transplantation model.Methods
The tooth root transplantation in an ectopic site model was used for investigation of the regenerative potential and trophic effects in vivo. Either pulp CD31(-) SP cell populations (1×10(6) cells) at the third to fourth passage or 5 μg/ml of CM from dental pulp, bone marro
