Isolation and Characterization of a Population of Immature Dental Pulp Stem Cells Expressing OCT-4 and Other Embryonic Stem Cell Markers

TL;DR: In vivo transplantation of immature dental pulp stem cells into immunocompromised mice, they showed dense engraftment in various tissues and the relative ease of recovery and the expression profiles of various markers justify further exploration of IDPSC for clinical therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Corneal reconstruction with tissue-engineered cell sheets composed of human immature dental pulp stem cells.

TL;DR: Corneal transparency of the rabbit eyes that underwent hIDPSC transplantation was improved throughout the follow-up, while the control corneas developed total conjunctivalization and opacification, and transplantation of a tissue-engineered h IDPSC sheet was successful for the reconstruction of corneal epithelium in an animal model of LSCD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reconstruction of large cranial defects in nonimmunosuppressed experimental design with human dental pulp stem cells.

TL;DR: The findings suggest that hDPSC is an additional cell resource for correcting large cranial defects in rats and constitutes a promising model for reconstruction of human large cranIAL defects in craniofacial surgery.
Journal ArticleDOI

In vitro differentiation of male mouse embryonic stem cells into both presumptive sperm cells and oocytes.

TL;DR: The data suggest that ES cells with XY chromosomes can produce under the same experimental conditions both types of presumptive gametes, and this production depends on their positional and temporal information within the EB context.
