Abstract:Resin monomer-induced dental pulp injury presents a pathology related to mitochondrial dysfunction. Melatonin has been regarded as a strong mitochondrial protective bioactive compound from the pineal gland. However, it remains unknown whether melatonin can prevent dental pulp from resin monomer-induced injury. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of melatonin on apoptosis of mouse preodontoblast cells (mDPC6T) induced by triethylene glycol dimethacrylate (TEGDMA), a major component in dental res… Show more
