Abstract
There is substantial evidence supporting the anti-inflammatory and regenerative potential of dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) through direct cell transplantation or paracrine action. However, DPSC secretome profile remains inadequately studied. This study provides proteomic profiling of the human DPSC secretome by comparatively analysising cell lysates and respective culture supernatants (i.e. conditioned media-CM) under variable oxygen tension conditions (normoxia-20% O2/CM_Norm vs. hypoxia 2% O2/CM_Hyp) and/or stimulation with Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (TNF-α). DPSC-CM samples and respective crude lysates (DPSC-CL) were collected and subjected to SDS-PAGE, followed by LC-MS/MS analysis. The identified proteins were analyzed by Gene Ontology, Reactome, and String databases. The anti-inflammatory properties of DPSC-CMs were validated via an in vitro RAW_246.7 murine macrophages model through evaluation of the expression of pro-and anti-inflammatory markers by real-time PCR. Results showed a total of 2413 proteins identified in CM_Norm, 2479 in CM_Norm+TNF-α, 1642 in CM_Hyp, and 2002 in CM_Hyp + TNF-α samples. CM_Norm contained 122 proteins statistically significantly upregulated compared to the CM_Hyp and involved in pathways related to "ECM organization", "cellular response to hypoxia", and "IL signaling". Functional network analysis showed that TGFβ1, TIMP1 and TIMP2 were key nodes among proteins significantly upregulated in the CM_Norm compared to the CM_Hyp, interacting with more than 10 proteins, each. DPSC-CM application in the in vitro RAW_246.7 model decreased the expression of pro-inflammatory markers (MMP-3, MMP-9, MMP-13, MCP-1), while increasing anti-inflammatory markers (IL-10). Overall, DPSC-CM collected under normoxic conditions is enriched with anti-inflammatory, tissue repair and regenerative factors, which prompts further investigation on its therapeutic applications.

Abstract
This systematic review aimed to investigate whether intra-articular injections of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) are beneficial for the treatment of degenerative temporomandibular disorders, such as temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJ-OA) and disc displacement with osteoarthritic lesions, when compared to other treatments, such as injections of hyaluronic acid (HA) or saline. An electronic search of the MEDLINE and Scopus databases was performed using combinations of the terms "temporomandibular" and "platelet rich plasma", to identify studies reported in English and published up until May 2017. A hand-search of relevant journals and the reference lists of selected articles was also performed. The initial screening identified 153 records, of which only six fulfilled the inclusion criteria and were included in this review. Of these studies, three compared PRP with HA, while three compared PRP with Ringer's lactate or saline. Four of the studies found PRP injections to be superior in terms of improvements in mandibular range of motion and pain intensity up to 12 months after treatment, while the remaining two studies found similar results for the different treatments. There is slight evidence for the potential benefits of intra-articular injections of PRP in patients with TMJ-OA. However, a standardized protocol for PRP preparation and application needs to be established.

Abstract
SUMMARY
New emerging approaches in tissue engineering include incorporation of metal ions involved in various metabolic processes, such as Cu, Zn, Si into bioceramic scaffolds for enhanced cell growth and differentiation of specific cell types. The aim of the present work was to investigate the attachment, morphology, growth and mineralized tissue formation potential of Dental Pulp Stem Cells (DPSCs) seeded into Mg-based glassceramic scaffolds with incorporated Zn and Cu ions. Bioceramic scaffolds containing Si 60%, Ca 30%, Mg 7.5% and either Zn or Cu 2.5%, sintered at different temperatures were synthesized by the foam replica technique and seeded with DPSCs for up to 21 days. Scanning Electron Microscopy with associated Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (SEM-EDS) was used to evaluate their ability to support the DPSCs’s attachment and proliferation, while the structure of the seeded scaffolds was investigated by X-Ray Diffraction Analysis (XRD). Zn-doped bioceramic scaffolds promoted the attachment and growth of human DPSCs, while identically fabricated scaffolds doped with Cu showed a cytotoxic behaviour, irrespective of the sintering temperature. A mineralized tissue with apatite-like structure was formed on both Cu-doped scaffolds and only on those Zn-doped scaffolds heat-treated at lower temperatures. Sol-gel derived Zn-doped scaffolds sintered at 890oC support DPSC growth and apatite-like tissue formation, which renders them as promising candidates towards dental tissue regeneration.
