Laminin-Modified Dental Pulp Extracellular Matrix for Dental Pulp Regeneration.

ABSTRACT: Native dental pulp extracellular matrix (DPEM) has proven to be an effective biomaterial for dental pulp regeneration. However, as a significant extracellular matrix glycoprotein, partial laminins were lost during the decellularization process, which were essential for odontoblast differentiation. Thereby, this study investigated the feasibility of LN supplementation to improve the surface of DPEM for odontoblast layer regeneration. The influences of laminin on cell adhesion and odontogenic differentiation were evaluated in vitro. Then, we fabricated laminin-modified DPEM based on the physical coating strategy and observed the location and persistency of laminin coating by immunofluorescent staining. Finally, laminin-modified DPEM combined with treated dentin matrix (TDM) was transplanted in orthotopic jaw bone of beagles (n = 3) to assess the effect of LNs on dental pulp tissue regeneration. The in vitro results showed that laminins could improve the adhesion of dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) and promoted DPSCs toward odontogenic differentiation. Continuous odontoblastic layer-like structure was observed in laminin-modified DPEM group, expressing the markers for odontoblastogenesis, dentine matrix protein-1 (DMP-1) and dentin sialophosphoprotein (DSPP). Overall, these studies demonstrate that the supplementation of laminins to DPEM contributes to the odontogenic differentiation of cells and to the formation of odontoblast layer in dental pulp regeneration.

Project description:Pulpal revascularization is commonly used in the dental clinic to obtain apical closure of immature permanent teeth with thin dentinal walls. Although sometimes successful, stimulating bleeding from the periapical area of the tooth can be challenging and in turn may deleteriously affect tooth root maturation. Our objective here was to define reliable methods to regenerate pulp-like tissues in tooth root segments (RSs). G1 RSs were injected with human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) encapsulated in 5% gelatin methacrylate (GelMA) hydrogel. G2 RSs injected with acellular GelMA alone, and G3 empty RSs were used as controls. White mineral trioxide aggregate was used to seal one end of the tooth root segment, while the other was left open. Samples were cultured in vitro in osteogenic media (OM) for 13 d and then implanted subcutaneously in nude rats for 4 and 8 wk. At least 5 sample replicates were used for each experimental group. Analyses of harvested samples found that robust pulp-like tissues formed in G1, GelMA encapsulated hDPSC/HUVEC-filled RSs, and less cellularized host cell-derived pulp-like tissue was observed in the G2 acellular GelMA and G3 empty RS groups. Of importance, only the G1, hDPSC/HUVEC-encapsulated GelMA constructs formed pulp cells that attached to the inner dentin surface of the RS and infiltrated into the dentin tubules. Immunofluorescent (IF) histochemical analysis showed that GelMA supported hDPSC/HUVEC cell attachment and proliferation and also provided attachment for infiltrating host cells. Human cell-seeded GelMA hydrogels promoted the establishment of well-organized neovasculature formation. In contrast, acellular GelMA and empty RS constructs supported the formation of less organized host-derived vasculature formation. Together, these results identify GelMA hydrogel combined with hDPSC/HUVECs as a promising new clinically relevant pulpal revascularization treatment to regenerate human dental pulp tissues.
