Abstract
Background Human-treated dentin matrix (hTDM) has recently been studied as a natural extracellular matrix-based biomaterial for dentin pulp regeneration. However, porcine-treated dentin matrix (pTDM) is a potential alternative scaffold due to limited availability. However, there is a dearth of information regarding the protein composition and underlying molecular mechanisms of pTDM.Methods: hTDM and pTDM were fabricated using human and porcine teeth, respectively, and their morphological characteristics were examined using scanning electron microscopy. Stem cells derived from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHEDs) were isolated and characterized using flow cytometry and multilineage differentiation assays. SHEDs were cultured in three-dimensional environments with hTDM, pTDM, or biphasic hydroxyapatite/tricalcium phosphate. The expression of odontogenesis markers in SHEDs were assessed using real-time polymerase chain reaction and immunochemical staining. Subsequently, SHEDs/TDM and SHEDs/HA/TCP complexes were transplanted subcutaneously into nude mice. The protein composition of pTDM was analyzed using proteomics and compared to previously published data on hTDM.Results: pTDM and hTDM elicited comparable upregulation of odontogenesis-related genes and proteins in SHEDs. Furthermore, both demonstrated the capacity to stimulate root-related tissue regeneration in vivo. Proteomic analysis revealed the presence of 278 protein groups in pTDM, with collagens being the most abundant. Additionally, pTDM and hTDM shared 58 identical proteins, which may contribute to their similar abilities to induce odontogenesis. Conclusions Both hTDM and pTDM exhibit comparable capabilities in inducing odontogenesis, potentially owing to their distinctive bioactive molecular networks.

Abstract
Treated dentin matrix (TDM) is an ideal scaffold material containing multiple extracellular matrix factors. The canonical Wnt signaling pathway is necessary for tooth regeneration. Thus, this study investigated whether the TDM can promote the odontogenic differentiation of human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) and determined the potential role of Wnt/β-catenin signaling in this process. Different concentrations of TDM promoted the dental differentiation of the hDPSCs and meanwhile, the expression of GSK3β was decreased. Of note, the expression of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway-related genes changed significantly in the context of TDM induction, as per RNA sequencing (RNA seq) data. In addition, the experiment showed that new dentin was visible in rat mandible cultured with TDM, and the thickness was significantly thicker than that of the control group. In addition, immunohistochemical staining showed lower GSK3β expression in new dentin. Consistently, the GSK3β knockdown hDPSCs performed enhanced odotogenesis compared with the control groups. However, GSK3β overexpressing could decrease odotogenesis of TDM-induced hDPSCs. These results were confirmed in immunodeficient mice and Wistar rats. These suggest that TDM promotes odontogenic differentiation of hDPSCs by directly targeting GSK3β and activating the canonical Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway and provide a theoretical basis for tooth regeneration engineering.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The low survival rate or dysfunction of extracellular matrix (ECM)-based engineered organs caused by the adverse effects of unfavourable local microenvironments on seed cell viability and stemness, especially the effects of excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS), prompted us to examine the importance of controlling oxidative damage for tissue transplantation and regeneration. We sought to improve the tolerance of seed cells to the transplant microenvironment via antioxidant pathways, thus promoting transplant efficiency and achieving better tissue regeneration. METHODS We improved the antioxidative properties of ECM-based bioroots with higher glutathione contents in dental follicle stem cells (DFCs) by pretreating cells or loading scaffolds with the antioxidant NAC. Additionally, we developed an in situ rat alveolar fossa implantation model to evaluate the long-term therapeutic effects of NAC in bioroot transplantation. RESULTS The results showed that NAC decreased H2O2-induced cellular damage and maintained the differentiation potential of DFCs. The transplantation experiments further verified that NAC protected the biological properties of DFCs by repressing replacement resorption or ankylosis, thus facilitating bioroot regeneration. CONCLUSIONS The following findings suggest that NAC could significantly protect stem cell viability and stemness during oxidative stress and exert better and prolonged effects in bioroot intragrafts.
