Stem Cells in Periodontal Regenerations - A Review
Dr. Arunagiri Karunanithi, Dr. Arulvizhi M, Dr. Srinivasan K
Abstract: The regeneration of periodontal tissues is considered a promising strategy.Stem cells have remarkable properties, such as immunomodulatory potential, proliferation, migration, and multilineage differentiation. Thus, they can be used to repair tissue damage andreduce inflammation, potentially leading to periodontal regeneration. Among the stem cells used forperiodontal regeneration, we studied dental mesenchymal stem cells (DMSCs), non-dental stem cells,and induced pluripotent stem cells (IPSCs). Although these cells have well-documented importantphysiological characteristics, their use in contemporary practice to repair the affected periodontiumis still a challenge.Periodontal tissue stem cells, which play a crucial role in maintaining the homeostasis of periodontal tissues,are found in the periodontal ligament (PDL). These cells have long been referred to as mesenchymalstem/stromal cells (MSCs), and their clinical applications have been extensively studied.
