ABSTRACT
Regenerative medicine and stem cell-based tissue engineering offer promising solutions for various tissue and organ defects. Adult stem cells, particularly those from dental pulp, are crucial due to their versatility and adaptability. Dental pulp is an abundant source of mesenchymal stem cells, Dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs), containing undifferentiated cells and blood vessels essential for tooth function. Biomarker analysis can determine regenerative properties, facilitating clinical integration and unlocking therapeutic potential. Selected biomarkers reflect mesenchymal, multi-lineage potency, and various differentiation capacities. DPSCs exhibit self-renewal, rapid proliferation, colony formation, and multi-lineage differentiation, making dental pulp an attractive reservoir for advancing tissue regeneration.
Keywords: Biomarkers, Dental pulp stem cells, Regenerative medicine, Stem cells, Tissue engineering, Dental pulp.
