Abstract
Periodontal tissues consist of cementum, periodontal ligaments, and alveolar bone, which provide indispensable support for physiological activities involving mastication, swallowing, and pronunciation. The formation of periodontal tissues requires a complex process, during which a close relationship with biomineralization is noticeable. Alveolar bone and cementum are physically hard, both of which are generated from biomineralization and possess the exact mechanical properties resembling other hard tissues. However, when periodontitis, congenital abnormalities, periapical diseases, and other pathological conditions affect the organism, the most common symptom, alveolar bone defect, is always unavoidable, which results in difficulties for current clinical treatment. Thus, exploring effective therapies to improve the prognosis is important. Matrix vesicles (MVs), a special subtype of extracellular vesicles related to histogenesis, are widely produced by the stem cells of developing hard tissues. With the assistance of the enzymes and transporters contained within them, MVs can construct the extracellular matrix and an adequate microenvironment, thus promoting biomineralization and periodontal development. Presently, MVs can be effectively extracted and delivered by scaffolds and generate hard tissues in vitro and in vivo, which are expected to be translated into therapies for alveolar bone defects. In this review, we generalize recent research progress on MV morphology, molecular composition, biological mechanism, and, in particular, the biological functions in periodontal development. In addition to the above unique roles of MVs, we further describe the available MV-related biotechnologies and achievements that make them promising for coping with existing problems and improving the treatment of alveolar bone defects.
