Odontogenic differentiation of vascular endothelial growth factor-transfected human dental pulp stem cells in vitro

Zinc bioglasses regulate mineralization in human dental pulp stem cells

“…This is in agreement with a previous report that VEGF plays an essential role in the regulation of mineralisation by stimulating differentiation of MSCs [31]. VEGF has also been confirmed to promote odontogenic differentiation of hDPSCs in vitro [32,33].…”

Angiogenic mechanisms of human dental pulp and their relationship with substance P expression in response to occlusal trauma

“…However, hypoxia-inducing factor-1a (HIF-1a) and VEGF expression in DPSC and HDPF are then enhanced, and therefore, angiogenesis takes place. This explains why vascular neoformation plays a fundamental role in repairing the pulp tissue as these new vessels will be in control of fulfilling the metabolic and oxygenation needs of the pulp by the mediation of the pulp tissue nervous system through neuropeptides such as SP (Derringer et al 1996, Derringer & Linden 1998, Aranha et al 2010, Kim et al 2014, Zhang et al 2014.…”

Lysyl oxidase‐mediated VEGF‐induced differentiation and angiogenesis in human dental pulp cells

“…Furthermore, lentivirus‐mediated human VEGF gene transfection (Zhang et al . ) and VEGF‐A165 peptide (D'Alimonte et al . ) promoted the odontogenic differentiation of human dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) in vitro .…”
