Hanno grande potenziale proliferativo Sono capaci di autorinnovamento Sono generalmente pluripotenti Sono presenti in tutti gli stadi di sviluppo: Embrionale (ESC) Fetale (FSC) Adulto (ASC) Provvedono: allo sviluppo embrionale e fetale alla rigenerazione ed all’omeostasi di organi adulti Caratteristiche generali

Waknitz, Jennifer J. Swiergiel, Vivienne S. Marshall, Jeffrey M. Jones “…Thesecell lines should be useful in human developmental biology, drugdiscovery, and transplantation medicine.”

  5. DentalStemCells Mesenchymalstemcells are found in dental pulp, periodontalligament, and the periosteum.10 An abundant source oftheseundifferentiatedmesenchymalcells in permanentteethis in the dental pulp of immature, impactedthirdmolars. Mesenchymalstemcellshaverecentlybeendiscovered in the dental pulp ofdeciduousteeth, knownas SHED (stemcellsfromhumanexfoliateddeciduousteeth).11 SHED cells are formed in the developingembryo and demonstrategreaterplasticitythanstemcellstakenfrompermanentteeth, meaningthattheygrow and multiply more rapidlyascomparedtothosetakenfrom the pulp offullydevelopedpermanentteeth.

Further, SHED cells are ableto express proteins on theircellsurfacesthatallowthemtonotonlydifferentiateintodental pulp, bone, and dentin, butalsointoneural and fatcells (adipocytes). In fact, SHED cellsdifferentiateintonervecells more readilythanadultstemcellsisolatedfrompermanentteeth.

SHED cells express a varietyofneuralgrowthfactors and glialcellmarkersthatdirectlyreflect the embryonicneuralcrestoriginofdental pulp and suggestthattheymaybeimportantforuse in future nerveregenerationtherapies. 11Dental stemcells are the mostaccessiblestemcells. Theyare isolatedfrommanysources, includinghealthydental pulp, periodontalligament, bone, and the apicalregionofdevelopingteeth, and can berecoveredduring a planneddental procedure.10 Stemcellswithin the pulp and at the apexofdevelopingteeth are a valuable source ofvery proliferative, multipotentmesenchymalstemcells.12 Folliculartissuesurroundingunerupted or impactedteethisofectomesenchymalorigin and isalsoanexcellent source forstemcells.11
