Abstract
BACKGROUND Vital pulp therapy, based on the use of stem cells, has promising research and therapeutic applications in dentistry. It is essential to understand the direct effect of capping materials on the dental pulp stem cells of primary teeth, which contribute to the healing powers of the tooth. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of different capping materials (Calcium Hydroxide (DyCal®) - Glass Ionomer (Fuji IX®) and light-cured resin modified calcium silicate (TheraCal LC®)) on the viability, proliferation, and differentiation of stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHEDs). METHODS SHEDs were isolated from extracted primary teeth, then divided into four groups and each of the capping materials were applied to the stem cells as follows: group I the controls, group II with Ca(OH)2, group III with the GIC, and group IV with the Theracal LC. For all groups assessment of viability and proliferation rate was done using the MTT cell proliferation assay. Also, Differentiation was evaluated by measuring the gene expression of Alkaline phosphatase enzyme activity (ALP) and Dentin matrix protein-1 (DMP1) through quantitative real-time PCR. Morphological assessment was conducted using Alizarin Red S staining. All evaluations were performed after 7 and 14 days of culture. RESULTS TheraCal LC showed the highest values of proliferation, which was significant only compared to the control group after 2 weeks (p = 0.012). After one week, TheraCal LC showed the highest significant values of ALP and DMP1 compared to all other groups (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION The three materials under study are biocompatible, maintain viability, and stimulate the proliferation and differentiation of SHEDs. However, TheraCal LC allows better proliferation of SHEDs than Dycal Ca(OH)2 and Fuji IX GIC.

Abstract
Introduction Published data obtained from in vitro and in vivo studies was reviewed systematically and analyzed critically to evaluate the effect of oral cavity-derived stem cells (OCDSCs) on the recovery or therapy of neurodegenerative diseases (NDs), such as Alzheimer disease (AD), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Huntington (HD) diseases, and Parkinson disease (PD). Methods An electronic search was accomplished. References of included articles were also manually searched. Studies were critically evaluated for suitability against the inclusion/exclusion criteria and the data was extracted. Bias risk evaluation of the studies and evidence synthesis were conducted. Results A total of 14 in vivo and 10 in vitro studies met the inclusion criteria. PD was induced in 10 in vivo and 7 in vitro studies, while AD was induced in 2 in vivo and 4 in vitro studies. Two studies (1 in vitro and 1 in vivo) evaluated ALS disease and 1 in vivo study evaluated HD. Moderate evidence was found for in vitro studies reporting the positive effect of OCDSCs on PD or AD recovery. Strong evidence was found for in vivo studies in which PD animal models were used; meanwhile, moderate evidence was found for the impact of OCDSCs on AD recovery. Limited evidence was found for in vivo studies evaluating HD and ALS. Conclusion Although studies reported favorable data regarding the OCDSCs on NDs, they presented a considerable risk of bias. Because of heterogeneous study characteristics, the current study recommends improving standardized methods to evaluate the therapeutic effects of OCDSCs on the NDs.

Abstract
Despite decades of research, no therapies are available to halt or slow down the course of neuro-degenerative disorders. Most of the drugs developed to fight neurodegeneration are aimed to alleviate symptoms, but none has proven adequate in altering the course of the pathologies. Cell therapy has emerged as an intriguing alternative to the classical pharmacological approach. Cell therapy consists of the transplantation of stem cells that can be obtained from various embryonal and adult tissues. Whereas the former holds notable ethical issue, adult somatic stem cells can be obtained without major concerns. However, most adult stem cells, such as those derived from the bone marrow, are committed toward the mesodermal lineage, and hence need to be reprogrammed to induce the differentiation into the neurons. The discovery of neural crest stem cells in the dental pulp, both in adults' molar and in baby teeth (dental pulp stem cells and stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth, respectively) prompted researchers to investigate their utility as therapy in nervous system disorders. In this review, we recapitulate the advancements on the application of these stem cells in preclinical models of neurodegenerative diseases, highlighting differences and analogies in their maintenance, differentiation, and potential clinical application.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Regenerative endodontic procedures (REP) rely on the principles of tissue engineering and take advantage of the regenerative abilities of Stem Cells derived from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHEDs). Since REPs advise the minimal instrumentation of root canals, they are more dependent on intracanal medicaments with antimicrobial activity to provide a sterile environment for pulpal regeneration. Hence present trial was conducted to examine the influence of different intracanal medicaments on SHEDs proliferation and survival. STUDY DESIGN SHEDs were cultured by using the long-term explant culture method and characterized using flow cytometry and exposed to different concentrations of calcium hydroxide, doxycycline, potassium iodide, triamcinolone, and glutaraldehyde. SHEDs were subjected to the 3-(4,5- dimethylthiazol -2 -yl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H- tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay, apoptosis using the Annexin V-binding assay and Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) activity. RESULTS All medicaments significantly reduced cell viability at different concentrations over different exposure times. Highest number of live cells and ALP activity was observed in SHEDs cultured in calcium hydroxide. CONCLUSION Potassium iodide and glutaraldehyde were the significantly less likely of all the medications examined to adversely affect the viability and survival of SHEDs.

Abstract
Silver diamine fluoride (SDF) has been used for many years for the treatment of caries, and minimally invasive dentistry concepts have made it popular again. The fact that its application does not require the administration of anesthesia makes its use in children more desirable. The aim of this study was to determine the cytotoxicity of two new commercial SDF products: Riva Star (SDI Dental Limited) and e-SDF (Kids-e-Dental) on mesenchymal stromal cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHEDs). SHEDs were exposed to SDF products at different concentrations (0.1%, 0.01% and 0.005%). Then different assays were performed to evaluate their cytocompatibility on SHEDs: IC50, MTT, cell migration (wound healing), cell cytoskeleton staining, cell apoptosis, generation of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), and ion chromatography. Statistical analyses were performed using one-way ANOVA and Tukey’s post hoc test (p < 0.05). Riva Star Step 2 showed the same cell metabolic activity when compared to the control condition at any time and concentration. Meanwhile, e-SDF displayed high cytotoxicity at any time and any concentration (*** p < 0.001), whereas Riva Star Step 1 displayed high cytotoxicity at any time at 0.1% and 0.01% (*** p < 0.001). Only e-SDF showed a statistically significant decreased cell migration rate (*** p < 0.001) at all times and in all concentrations. At 0.1%, e-SDF and Riva Star Step 1 only showed 4.37% and 4.47% of viable cells, respectively. These results suggest that Riva Star has better in vitro cytocompatibility on SHEDs than does e-SDF. Riva Star Step 1 was found to be as cytotoxic as e-SDF, but it had better biological properties when mixed with Riva Star Step 2. Our findings suggest that Riva Star is more suitable when used in deciduous teeth due to its lower cytotoxicity compared to e-SDF.

Abstract
Stem cell therapy is an evolving treatment strategy in regenerative medicine. Recent studies report stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth could complement the traditional mesenchymal stem cell sources. Stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth exhibit mesenchymal characteristics with multilineage differentiation potential. Mesenchymal stem cells are widely investigated for cell therapy and disease modeling. Although many research are being conducted to address the challenges of mesenchymal stem cell therapy in clinics, most of the studies are still in infancy. Host cell microenvironment is one of the major factors affecting the homing of transplanted stem cell and understanding the factors affecting the fate of stem cells of prime important. In this study we aimed to understand the effects of serum deprivation in stem cells derived from human deciduous tooth. Our study aimed to understand the morphological, transcriptional, cell cycle and stemness based changes of stem cells in nutrient deprived medium. Our results suggest that stem cells in nutrient deprived media undergo low proliferation, high apoptosis and changed the differentiation potential of the stem cells. Serum deprived mesenchymal stem cells exhibited enhanced chondrogenic differentiation potential and reduced osteogenic differentiation potential. Moreover, the activation of key metabolic sensor AMP-activated kinase (AMPK) leads to activation of transcription factors such as FOXO3, which leads to an S phase quiescence. Serum deprivation also enhanced the expression of stemness related genes Sox2 and c-Myc.

Abstract
A promising alternative to conventional nerve grafting is the use of artificial grafts made from biodegradable and biocompatible materials and support cells. The aim of this study has been to produce a biodegradable nerve conduit and investigate the cytocompatibility with stem cells and its regeneration promoting properties in a rat animal model. A poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) conduit of aligned nanofibers was produced by the electrospinning method, functionalized with gelatin and seeded either with mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) or with human mesenchymal stem cells (SHED). The cell proliferation and viability were analyzed in vitro. The conduits were implanted in a rat model of sciatic nerve lesion by transection. The functional recovery was monitored for 8 weeks using the Sciatic Functional Index (SFI) and histological analyses were used to assess the nerve regeneration. Scaffolds of aligned PLGA fibers with an average diameter of 0.90 ± 0.36 μm and an alignment coefficient of 0.817 ± 0.07 were produced. The treatment with gelatin increased the fiber diameter to 1.05 ± 0.32 μm, reduced the alignment coefficient to 0.655 ± 0.045 and made the scaffold very hydrophilic. The cell viability and Live/dead assay showed that the stem cells remained viable and proliferated after 7 days in culture. Confocal images of phalloidin/DAPI staining showed that the cells adhered and proliferated widely, in fully adaptation with the biomaterial. The SFI values of the group that received the conduit were similar to the values of the control lesioned group. In conclusion, conduits composed of PLGA-gelatin nanofibers were produced and promoted a very good interaction with the stem cells. Although in vitro studies have shown this biomaterial to be a promising biomaterial for the regeneration of nerve tissue, in vivo studies of this graft have not shown significant improvements in nerve regeneration.

Abstract
Stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHEDs) are considered a type of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) because of their unique origin from the neural crest. SHEDs can self-renewal and multi-lineage differentiation with the ability to differentiate into odontoblasts, osteoblast, chondrocytes, neuronal cells, hepatocytes, adipocytes, etc. They are emerging as an ideal source of MSCs because of their easy availability and extraordinary cell number. Ascorbic acid, or vitamin C, has many cell-based applications, such as bone regeneration, osteoblastic differentiation, or extracellular matrix production. It also impacts stem cell plasticity and the ability to sustain pluripotent activity. In this study, we evaluate the effects of ascorbic acid on stemness, paracrine secretion, and differentiation into osteoblast, chondrocytes, and adipocytes. SHEDs displayed enhanced multifaceted activity, which may have applications in regenerative therapy.

Abstract
Stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHEDs) are ideal seed cells in bone tissue engineering. As a first-line antidiabetic drug, metformin has recently been found to promote bone formation. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of metformin on the osteogenic differentiation of SHEDs and its underlying mechanism. SHEDs were isolated from the dental pulp of deciduous teeth from healthy children aged 6 to 12, and their surface antigen markers of stem cells were detected by flow cytometry. The effect of metformin (10-200 μM) treatment on SHEDs cell viability, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation was analyzed. The activation of adenosine 5'-monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) phosphorylation Thr172 (p-AMPK) was determined by western blot assay. SHEDs were confirmed as mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) on the basis of the expression of characteristic surface antigens. Metformin (10-200 μM) did not affect the viability and proliferation of SHEDs but significantly increased the expression of osteogenic genes, alkaline phosphatase activity, matrix mineralization, and p-AMPK level expression in SHEDs. Compound C, a specific inhibitor of the AMPK pathway, abolished metformin-induced osteogenic differentiation of SHEDs. Moreover, metformin treatment enhanced the expression of proangiogenic/osteogenic growth factors BMP2 and VEGF but reduced the osteoclastogenic factor RANKL/OPG expression in SHEDs. In conclusion, metformin could induce the osteogenic differentiation of SHEDs by activating the AMPK pathway and regulates the expression of proangiogenic/osteogenic growth factors and osteoclastogenic factors in SHEDs. Therefore, metformin-pretreated SHEDs could be a potential source of seed cells during stem cell-based bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Stem cells can multiply into more cells with similar types in an undifferentiated form and differentiate into other types of cells. The great success and key essence of stem cell technology is the isolation of high-quality Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) with high potency, either with multipotent or pluripotent property. In this line, Stem cells from Human Exfoliated Deciduous teeth (SHEDs) are highly proliferative stem cells from dental pulp and have multipoint differentiation capacity. These cells play a pivotal role in regenerative medicine, such as cell repair associated with neurodegenerative, hepatobiliary, and pancreatic diseases. In addition, stem cell therapy has been widely used to regulate immune response and repair of tissue lesions. This overview captured the differential biological characteristics, and the potential role of stem cell technology and paid special attention to human welfare SHEDs in eliminating the above-mentioned diseases. This review provides further insights into stem cell technology by expanding the therapeutic potential of SHEDs in tissue engineering and cell organ repairs.

Abstract
This systematic review assessed if photobiomodulation of human dental pulp tissue improved cell viability, proliferation, and/or differentiation compared with a placebo. This systematic review was conducted in line with PRISMA. PICO question was established; inclusion and exclusion criteria were established before a search had begun. A literature search was conducted through PubMed, Scopus, and Cochrane. Studies were included if published within the last 20 years in English language, or where translation was available; laser parameters were mentioned; human dental pulp tissue was studied in vitro. Studies were excluded if non-human dental pulp tissue was studied and where the study was an in vivo study. Out of the total 121 studies found, 109 were excluded. Of the twelve included studies, three full-text articles were not available despite attempts made to contact the respective authors, leaving nine studies. Four of the included studies reported the use of stem cells derived from human deciduous teeth (SHEDs), and five used those from human permanent teeth (DPSCs). Most included studies utilized InGaAlP laser with wavelengths 660 nm, and one study with 610 nm. Other types of lasers included LED InGaN, and GaAlAs. Out of all included studies, two had a moderate risk of bias, and the rest had a low risk of bias. All studies confirmed positive effects on proliferation. One study also found improved osteogenic differentiation of the stem cells derived from stem cells of deciduous teeth. After assessing SHEDs and DPSCs separately, it is found that photobiomodulation improved cell proliferation in both subgroups. Due to heterogeneity in design protocols and laser parameters, it was not possible to compare the studies together. However, this study indicated that cell viability and proliferation did improve with photobiomodulation.

Abstract
Introduction Stem cells have unmatched capacity and potential for regeneration and when used alone or in combination with scaffolds to replace or repair damaged cells, can differentiate into any mature cell. Aim To evaluate the functional differentiation potential of EMD (Enamel Matrix Derivative), MTA (Mineral Trioxide Aggregate) and Biodentine on Stem Cells from Human Exfoliated Deciduous teeth (SHED). Objective To determine functional differentiation potential (osteogenic/odontogenic) of various biomaterials on SHED. Material and method SHED derived from 5th linear passage after sub-culturing were treated with EMD, MTA and Biodentine individually and their effect on cell viability was compared and evaluated by MTT (3-4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) assay for 7 days. Alizarin red S staining was used to assess mineralization potential of these materials by the staining calcium deposits for 14 days. The results were analyzed using One-way ANOVA, Post hoc Tukey’s test for multiple comparisons. Results It was observed that EMD imparted the highest cell viability at the end of 7 days (p < 0.001) followed by Biodentine and MTA. Likewise EMD showed highest potential to enhanced mineralization and expression of dentine sialoprotein (p < 0.001) followed by Biodentine and MTA at the end of 14 days (p<0.001). Conclusion It can be concluded that all the tested materials are bioinductive to SHED. EMD can be used for various vital pulp therapies as that of Biodentine and MTA with predictable as well as enhanced success rate.

Abstract
The aim is to investigate in vitro biological effects of silk fibroin 3D scaffolds on stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHEDs) in terms of proliferation, morphological appearance, cell viability, and expression of mesenchymal stem cell markers. Silk fibroin 3D scaffolding materials may represent promising suitable scaffolds for their application in regenerative endodontic therapy approaches. SHEDs were cultured in silk fibroin 3D scaffolds. Then, cell numbers were counted and the Alamar blue colorimetric assay was used to analyse cell proliferation after 24, 48, 72, and 168 h of culture. The morphological features of SHEDs cultured on silk fibroin scaffolds were evaluated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Finally, cell viability and the expression of mesenchymal stem cell markers were analysed by flow cytometry. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by a Bonferroni post-test was performed (P < 0.05). At 24 and 48 h of culture, SHED proliferation on scaffolds was modest compared to the control although still significant (p < 0.05). However, cell proliferation progressively increased from 72 to 168 h compared with the control (p < 0.001; p < 0.01). In addition, flow cytometry analysis showed that the culture of SHEDs on silk fibroin scaffolds did not significantly alter the level of expression of the mesenchymal markers CD73, CD90, or CD105 up to 168 h; in addition, cell viability in silk fibroin was similar to than obtained in plastic. Moreover, SEM studies revealed a suitable degree of proliferation, cell spreading, and attachment, especially after 168 h of culture. The findings from the current study suggest that silk fibroin 3D scaffolds had a favourable effect on the biological responses of SHEDs. Further in vivo investigations are required to confirm these results.

Abstract
Dental pulp is a highly vascularized tissue requiring adequate blood supply for successful regeneration. In this study, we investigated the functional role of stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHEDs) as a perivascular source for in vivo formation of vessel-like structures. Primarily isolated SHEDs showed mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-like characteristics including the expression of surface antigens and in vitro osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation potentials. Moreover, SHEDs were positive for NG2, α-smooth muscle actin (SMA), platelet-derived growth factor receptor beta (PDGFRβ), and CD146 as pericyte markers. To prove feasibility of SHEDs as perivascular source, SHEDs were transplanted into immunodeficient mouse using Matrigel with or without human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Transplantation of SHEDs alone or HUVECs alone resulted in no formation of vessel-like structures with enough red blood cells. However, when SHEDs and HUVECs were transplanted together, extensive vessel-like structures were formed. The presence of murine erythrocytes within lumens suggested the formation of anastomoses between newly formed vessel-like structures in Matrigel plug and the host circulatory system. To understand underlying mechanisms of in vivo angiogenesis, the expression of angiogenic cytokine and chemokine, their receptors, and MMPs was compared between SHEDs and HUVECs. SHEDs showed higher expression of VEGF, SDF-1α, and PDGFRβ than HUVECs. On the contrary, HUVECs showed higher expression of VEGF receptors, CXCR4, and PDGF-BB than SHEDs. This differential expression pattern suggested reciprocal interactions between SHEDs and HUVECs and their involvement during in vivo angiogenesis. In conclusion, SHEDs could be a feasible source of perivascular cells for in vivo angiogenesis.

Abstract
Stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHEDs) are mesenchymal stem cells isolated from the exfoliated human deciduous incisor that can differentiate into a many cell types. In this study, we evaluated the effect of liquorice or angelica extracts on the hepatic differentiation potential of SHEDs cells. SHEDs cells cultured in medium containing liquorice extracts were analyzed for 1) changes in cellular morphology, 2) changes in hepatic gene expression, AFP (Alpha-fetoprotein) and ALB (Albumin), and 3) albumin secretion and urea synthesis activity. Our data show that the hepatic differentiation potential of SHEDs cells is enhanced by the presence of liquorice or angelica extracts in the culture medium. Our findings present new therapeutic possibilities for liver damage repair.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the relationship between ATP and IL-6 in mechanical stress-induced REX-1 expression in SHEDs. METHODS Cells were stimulated with mechanical stress (0-2.5 gcm(-2)), IL-6 (0.1-5 ng/ml), or ATP (10-100 μM) for 2h in serum-free media. IL-6 and REX-1 expression was examined by qualitative and quantitative polymerase chain reaction. ATP release was measured using a bioluminescence assay. The molecular mechanisms of the signalling pathways were investigated using chemical inhibitors. RESULTS Mechanical stress induced IL-6 and REX-1 mRNA expression and ATP release. JAK inhibitor I inhibited the increase in REX-1 expression and ATP release but not IL-6 induction. Furthermore, suramin inhibited the upregulation of REX-1 mRNA expression but not ATP release. Exogenous IL-6 promoted both ATP release and REX-1 expression. The IL-6-induced REX-1 expression was attenuated by a P2Y1-specific receptor antagonist. Moreover, REX-1 expression was upregulated in a dose-dependent manner by the addition of ATP or a P2Y1 agonist. This inductive effect was abolished by the P2Y1-specific receptor antagonist. CONCLUSIONS ATP-P2Y1 signalling is involved in IL-6-regulated stress-induced REX-1 expression in SHEDs. These results imply the participation of mechanical stress, IL-6, and ATP in regulating the expression of REX-1, a pluripotent stem cell marker.
