Adult stem cells used for tissue engineering of teeth
Published in Blood Weekly, June 2nd, 2005
"Tooth development, a process which occurs in the developing embryo, involves the reciprocal and sequential signaling between epithelial and mesenchymal tissue of the developing first branchial arch.
"The oral epithelium produces the first inductive signals for odontogenesis at around E10.0, which trigger off a cascade of events that result in the formation of a tooth," scientists in England report.
"We have engineered a tooth in vitro by harnessing the basic principles of odontogenesis and the inductive capability of the oral epithelium of the developing embryo.
