Abstract
Tooth decay, which leads to pulpal inflammation due to the pulp's response to bacterial components and byproducts is the most common infectious disease. The main goals of clinical management are to eliminate sources of infection, to facilitate healing by regulating inflammation indental tissue, and to replace lost tissues. A variety of novel approaches from tissue engineering based on stem cells, bioactive molecules, and extracellular matrix-like scaffold structures to therapeutic applications, or a combination of all these are present in the literature. Shortcomings of existing conventional materials for pulp capping and the novel approches aiming to preserve pulp vitality highligted the need for developing new targeted dental materials. This review looks at the novel approches for vital pulp treatments after briefly addresing the conventional vital pulp treatment as well as the regenerative and self defense capabilities of the pulp. A narrative review focusing on the current and future approaches for pulp preservation was performed after surveying the relevant papers on vital pulp therapies including pulp capping, pulpotomy, and potential approaches for facilitating dentin-pulp complex regeneration in PubMed, Medline, and Scopus databases.

de Lima Barbosa R, Stellet Lourenço E, de Azevedo dos Santos JV, Rodrigues Santiago Rocha N, Mourão CF, Alves GG. The Effects of Platelet-Rich Fibrin in the Behavior of Mineralizing Cells Related to Bone Tissue Regeneration-A Scoping Review of In Vitro Evidence. J Funct Biomater 2023; 14:503. [PMID: 37888168 PMCID: PMC10607127 DOI: 10.3390/jfb14100503] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2023] [Revised: 09/12/2023] [Accepted: 10/08/2023] [Indexed: 10/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) is a second-generation blood concentrate that serves as an autologous approach for both soft and hard tissue regeneration. It provides a scaffold for cell interaction and promotes the local release of growth factors. PRF has been investigated as an alternative to bone tissue therapy, with the potential to expedite wound healing and bone regeneration, though the mechanisms involved are not yet fully understood. This review aims to explore the in vitro evidence of PRF's effects on the behavior of mineralizing cells related to bone tissue regeneration. A systematic electronic search was conducted up to August 2023, utilizing three databases: PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus. A total of 76 studies were selected, which presented in vitro evidence of PRF's usefulness, either alone or in conjunction with other biomaterials, for bone tissue treatment. PRF membranes' influence on the proliferation, differentiation, and mineralization of bone cells is linked to the constant release of growth factors, resulting in changes in crucial markers of bone cell metabolism and behavior. This further reinforces their therapeutic potential in wound healing and bone regeneration. While there are some notable differences among the studies, the overall results suggest a positive effect of PRF on cell proliferation, differentiation, mineralization, and a reduction in inflammation. This points to its therapeutic potential in the field of regenerative medicine. Collectively, these findings may help enhance our understanding of how PRF impacts basic physiological processes in bone and mineralized tissue.

The development of a dental light curable PRFe-loaded hydrogel as a potential scaffold for pulp-dentine complex regeneration: An in vitro study. Int Endod J 2023; 56:447-464. [PMID: 36546662 DOI: 10.1111/iej.13882] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/15/2022] [Revised: 12/07/2022] [Accepted: 12/14/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
AIM The study aimed to develop a bicomponent bioactive hydrogel formed in situ and enriched with an extract of platelet-rich fibrin (PRFe) and to assess its potential for use in pulp-dentine complex tissue engineering via cell homing. METHODOLOGY A bicomponent hydrogel based on photo-activated naturally derived polymers, methacrylated chitosan (ChitMA) and methacrylated collagen (ColMA), plus PRFe was fabricated. The optimized formulation of PRFe-loaded bicomponent hydrogel was determined by analysing the mechanical strength, swelling ratio and cell viability simultaneously. The physical, mechanical, rheological and morphological properties of the optimal hydrogel with and without PRFe were determined. Additionally, MTT, phalloidin/DAPI and live/dead assays were carried out to compare the viability, cytoskeletal morphology and migration ability of stem cells from the apical papilla (SCAP) within the developed hydrogels with and without PRFe, respectively. To further investigate the effect of PRFe on the differentiation of encapsulated SCAP, alizarin red S staining, RT-PCR analysis and immunohistochemical detection were performed. Statistical significance was established at p < .05. RESULTS The optimized formulation of PRFe-loaded bicomponent hydrogel can be rapidly photocrosslinked using available dental light curing units. Compared to bicomponent hydrogels without PRFe, the PRFe-loaded hydrogel exhibited greater viscoelasticity and higher cytocompatibility to SCAP. Moreover, it promoted cell proliferation and migration in vitro. It also supported the odontogenic differentiation of SCAP as evidenced by its promotion of biomineralization and upregulating the gene expression for ALP, COL I, DSPP and DMP1 as well as facilitated angiogenesis by enhancing VEGFA gene expression. CONCLUSIONS The new PRFe-loaded ChitMA/ColMA hydrogel developed within this study fulfils the criteria of injectability, cytocompatibility, chemoattractivity and bioactivity to promote odontogenic differentiation, which are fundamental requirements for scaffolds used in pulp-dentine complex regeneration via cell-homing approaches.

Abstract
Dental pulp and periapical diseases make patients suffer from acute pain and economic loss. Although root canal therapies, as demonstrated through evidence-based medicine, can relieve symptoms and are commonly employed by dentists, it is still difficult to fully restore a dental pulp's nutrition, sensory, and immune-regulation functions. In recent years, researchers have made significant progress in tissue engineering to regenerate dental pulp in a desired microenvironment. With breakthroughs in regenerative medicine and material science, bioactive scaffolds play a pivotal role in creating a suitable microenvironment for cell survival, proliferation, and differentiation, following dental restoration and regeneration. This article focuses on current challenges and novel perspectives about bioactive scaffolds in creating a microenvironment to promote dental pulp regeneration. We hope our readers will gain a deeper understanding and new inspiration of dental pulp regeneration through our summary.

Differential Effects of Escherichia coli- Versus Porphyromonas gingivalis-derived Lipopolysaccharides on Dental Pulp Stem Cell Differentiation in Scaffold-free Engineered Tissues.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION To leverage the therapeutic capabilities of dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) for regenerative endodontic applications, a better understanding of their innate defense and reparative processes is needed. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is a major virulent factor of gram-negative bacteria and contributor to endodontic infections. We have developed 3-dimensional scaffold-free DPSC tissues that self-organize into dentin-pulp organoids comprising a mineralized dentin-like tissue on the periphery and an unmineralized pulp-like core. In this study, scaffold-free DPSC constructs were used as controllable experimental models to study the DPSC response to bacterial challenge. METHODS Scaffold-free constructs were engineered using DPSCs isolated from human third molars. To simulate bacterial exposure, DPSC constructs were exposed to either Porphyromonas gingivalis-derived LPS or Escherichia coli-derived LPS. The effects of LPS on DPSC differentiation, proliferation, and apoptosis were evaluated. RESULTS Engineered tissues lacking LPS treatment self-organized into dentin-pulp organoids. LPS treatment did not negatively affect DPSC proliferation or apoptosis in the engineered tissues. Both E. coli LPS and P. gingivalis LPS inhibited the up-regulation of RUNX2 messenger RNA expression and reduced the expression of the odontoblast-associated proteins (P < .05), suggesting that LPS is inhibiting odontoblastic differentiation. However, only E. coli LPS treatment significantly reduced mineral deposition in the DPSC (P < .05) constructs, indicating that E. coli LPS but not P. gingivalis LPS reduced functional differentiation of DPSCs and prevented DPSCs from self-organizing into a dentin-pulp complex-like structure. CONCLUSIONS This study establishes scaffold-free DPSC constructs as models of oral disease. Furthermore, it emphasizes the diversity of LPS derived from different bacterial species and highlights the necessity of using LPS derived from clinically relevant bacteria in basic science investigations.

Abstract
Pulp necrosis in immature teeth disrupts root development and predisposes roots to fracture as a consequence of their thin walls and open apices. Regenerative endodontics is a developing treatment modality whereby necrotic pulps are replaced with newly formed healthy tissue inside the root canal. Many clinical studies have demonstrated the potential of this strategy to stimulate root maturation and apical root-end closure. However, clinical outcomes are patient-dependent and unpredictable. The development of predictable clinical protocols is achieved through the interplay of the three classical elements of tissue engineering, namely, stem cells, signaling molecules, and scaffolds. Scaffolds provide structural support for cells to adhere and proliferate and also regulate cell differentiation and metabolism. Hence, designing and fabricating an appropriate scaffold is a crucial step in tissue engineering. In this review, four main classes of scaffolds used to engineer pulp-dentine complexes, including bioceramic-based scaffolds, synthetic polymer-based scaffolds, natural polymer-based scaffolds, and composite scaffolds, are covered. Additionally, recent advances in the design, fabrication, and application of such scaffolds are analysed along with their advantages and limitations. Finally, the importance of vascular network establishment in the success of pulp-dentine complex regeneration and strategies used to create scaffolds to address this challenge are discussed.

Abstract
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is widely used for induction of inflammation in various human tissues, including dental pulp. The purpose of this study was to summarize current medical literature focusing on (1) cell types used by researchers to simulate dental pulp inflammation, (2) LPS variants utilized in experimental settings and how these choices affect the findings. Our study was conducted in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA). We searched for studies reporting outcomes of lipopolysaccharide application on dental pulp cells in vitro using electronic databases: MEDLINE, Web of Science and Scopus. Having gathered data from 115 papers, we aimed to present all known effects LPS has on different cell types present in dental pulp. We focused on specific receptors and particles that are involved in molecular pathways. Our review provides an essential foundation for further research using in vitro models of pulpitis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the role of autophagy in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced apoptosis of murine odontoblasts. METHODS Murine odontoblasts (mDPC-23 cells) were treated with 5 μg/mL LPS for 6, 12 and 24 h, and the changes in cell viability was examined using CCK8 kit and cell apoptosis was detected by TUNEL staining. The changes in the protein levels of LC3, Beclin1, Atg5, AKT, p-AKT, mTOR and p-mTOR were detected using Western blotting. The effect of 3-MA treatment for 24 h on LPS-induced apoptosis of mDPC-23 cells was evaluated by detecting the expressions of apoptosis-related proteins caspase-3 and Bax using Western blotting. RESULTS Stimulation with LPS for 6 and 12 h did not cause significant changes in the proliferation or apoptosis of mDPC-23 cells, but LPS treatment for 24 h significantly suppressed cell proliferation (P < 0.05) and promoted cell apoptosis as shown by TUNEL assay (P < 0.05). Stimulation with LPS for 24 significantly increased the expression levels of LC3, Beclin1 and Atg5, decreased the expressions of p-AKT and p-mTOR (P < 0.05), and obviously upregulated the expressions of caspase-3 and Bax (P < 0.05). Treatment with 3-MA markedly lowered caspase-3 and Bax protein expressions in LPS-stimulated cells (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS LPS stimulation induces autophagy to promote apoptosis of mDPC-23 cells, and suppression of autophagy attenuates LPS-induced apoptosis. Autophagy may play an important role in the injury of inflamed pulp tissues.

Abstract
AIM The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) modified with bioactive radiopacifiers-nanohydroxyapatite (nHA) and dentin chips (DC) on odontoblastic differentiation in human dental pulp cells (HDPCs). SUBJECTS AND METHODS PRF was modified with 50wt% of nHA (G bone-SHAG31, Surgiwear Company) and 50 wt% of DC. HDPSCs differentiation and mineralization by the groups ([Group A - Control (Dimethyl sulfoxide), Group B - PRF, Group C - PRF + nHA, Group D - PRF + DC]) were assessed. ELISA was done to quantify the interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-8 cytokine expression. The odontoblastic differentiation was determined by the expression of odontogenesis-related genes and the extent of mineralization using alizarin red S staining. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS USED One-way ANOVA with post hoc Tukey-honestly significant difference tests were applied to assess the significance among various groups. RESULTS The level of inflammatory cytokines (IL-6 and IL-8) expression by Group D (PRF + 50 wt% DC) was higher compared to Group B (PRF) and Group C (PRF + 50 wt% DC). Group C (PRF + 50 wt% nHA) induced more mineralization nodules compared to other groups. The integrated density value for the DSPP and DMP-1 protein expression by Group C (PRF + 50 wt% nHA) and Group D (PRF + 50 wt% DC) was higher compared to Group B (PRF). CONCLUSIONS The results suggest that the addition of bioactive radiopacifiers into PRF has a synergistic effect on the stimulation of odontoblastic differentiation of HDPCs, hence inducing mineralization.

[PMID: 31879804 PMCID: PMC6988133 DOI: 10.1007/s00784-019-03156-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 60] [Impact Index Per Article: 12.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/06/2019] [Accepted: 11/13/2019] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
Objective To systematically assess the effects of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) on in vitro cellular behavior. Methods A systematic electronic search using MEDLINE database was performed. In vitro studies using PRF were considered and articles published up to June 31, 2018 were screened. Eligible studies were selected based on the use of human PRF. Results In total, 1746 titles were identified with the search terms, from these 37 met the inclusion criteria and were chosen for data extraction. In addition, 16 new studies, mainly published in 2019, were also included in the analysis resulting in 53 studies. No meta-analysis could be performed due to the heterogeneity of study designs. Included studies show that PRF enhances proliferation, migration, adhesion, and osteogenic differentiation on a variety of cell types along with cell signaling activation. Furthermore, PRF reduces inflammation, suppresses osteoclastogenesis, and increases the expression of various growth factors in mesenchymal cells. Summary and conclusions Despite some notable differences of the studies, the overall findings suggest a positive effect of PRF on cell proliferation, migration, adhesion, differentiation, and inflammation pointing towards a therapeutic potential in regenerative dentistry. Clinical relevance PRF serves as a reservoir of bioactive molecules to support wound healing and bone regeneration. Although the cellular mechanisms by which PRF supports the clinical outcomes remain unclear, in vitro research provides possible explanations. This systematic review aims to provide an update of the existing research on how PRF affects basic physiological processes in vitro. The overall findings suggest that PRF induces cell proliferation, migration, adhesion, and differentiation along with possessing anti-inflammatory properties further supporting its therapeutic potential in wound healing and bone regeneration.

J Oral Pathol Med 2019; 48:951-958. [PMID: 31318999 DOI: 10.1111/jop.12926] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2018] [Revised: 06/14/2019] [Accepted: 07/05/2019] [Indexed: 12/21/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Astragaloside IV (AS-IV), a natural herbal compound from Astragalus membranaceus, has inhibitory effects on receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclastogenesis, and RANKL signal helps to regulate odontoblast differentiation. However, whether and how AS-IV affects odontoblastic differentiation remains unclear. METHODS Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated MDPC-23 cells and rat pulpitis were treated with AS-IV, cell viability, and LDH leakage was analyzed by CCK-8 assay and LDH Leakage assay. The production of TNF-α and IL-6 was determined by ELISA and qRT-PCR assay. The expression of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) was detected using an ALP assay kit, and the expression of dentin sialophos-phoprotein (DSPP), dentin matrix protein-1 (DMP1), basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF2), and phosphorylated extracellular signal-regulated kinase (p-ERK) was determined by western blot. RESULTS AS-IV dose dependently increased in cell viability and decreased the overproduction of TNF-α and IL-6 in LPS-stimulated MDPC-23 cells. AS-IV also counteracted LPS-induced downregulation of ALP, DSPP, and DMP1 in MDPC-23 cells. Furthermore, AS-IV significantly decreased the expression of FGF2 and p-ERK in LPS-stimulated MDPC-23 cells. More important, the addition of FGF2 partly neutralized AS-IV-mediated inhibition of FGF2/ERK signaling, abolished AS-IV-induced reduction of TNF-α and IL-6, and counteracted AS-IV-induced upregulation of DSPP and DMP-1 in these cells. Meanwhile, AS-IV inhibited the excessive production of TNF-α and IL-6, suppressed the downregulation of DSPP and DMP1, and disturbed the up-regulation of FGF2 and p-ERK in the pulp tissues of rat pulpitis model. CONCLUSIONS AS-IV exerted anti-inflammatory and pro-differentiation effects in LPS-stimulated MDPC-23 cells and rat pulpitis via inhibiting the FGF2/ERK signaling pathway.

Abstract
Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) has been used for several treatments in dentistry. The present study reports the clinical and radiographic outcomes of a root canal treatment of a necrotic immature maxillary central incisor using PRF. A 15-year-old female patient presented with a diagnosis of maxillary left central incisor pulp necrosis with open apex and periapical radiolucency and extraoral sinus tract. Two months after a two-visit root canal treatment using calcium hydroxide as a root canal dressing, no clinical symptoms were observed, and the previous sinus tract at the patient's nostril had completely disappeared. In the subsequent visit, the PRF was prepared and delivered into the root canal. The PRF layer was covered with collagen membrane and then sealed with white mineral trioxide aggregate. One year later, the patient remained asymptomatic. Radiological examination using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) showed that the destructive buccal alveolar bone was completely repaired.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Research across many fields of medicine now points towards the clinical advantages of combining regenerative procedures with platelet-rich fibrin (PRF). This systematic review aimed to gather the extensive number of articles published to date on PRF in the dental field to better understand the clinical procedures where PRF may be utilized to enhance tissue/bone formation. MATERIALS AND METHODS Manuscripts were searched systematically until May 2016 and separated into the following categories: intrabony and furcation defect regeneration, extraction socket management, sinus lifting procedures, gingival recession treatment, and guided bone regeneration (GBR) including horizontal/vertical bone augmentation procedures. Only human randomized clinical trials were included for assessment. RESULTS In total, 35 articles were selected and divided accordingly (kappa = 0.94). Overall, the use of PRF has been most investigated in periodontology for the treatment of periodontal intrabony defects and gingival recessions where the majority of studies have demonstrated favorable results in soft tissue management and repair. Little to no randomized clinical trials were found for extraction socket management although PRF has been shown to significantly decrease by tenfold dry sockets of third molars. Very little to no data was available directly investigating the effects of PRF on new bone formation in GBR, horizontal/vertical bone augmentation procedures, treatment of peri-implantitis, and sinus lifting procedures. CONCLUSIONS Much investigation now supports the use of PRF for periodontal and soft tissue repair. Despite this, there remains a lack of well-conducted studies demonstrating convincingly the role of PRF during hard tissue bone regeneration. Future human randomized clinical studies evaluating the use of PRF on bone formation thus remain necessary. CLINICAL RELEVANCE PRF was shown to improve soft tissue generation and limit dimensional changes post-extraction, with little available data to date supporting its use in GBR.
