Fig. 2From: Dental-derived mesenchymal stem cell sheets: a prospective tissue engineering for regenerative medicineThe origins, cell sheets preparation and decellularization of dental-derived mesenchymal stem cells (DMSCs). Dental-derived mesenchymal stem cells (DMSCs) consist of dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs), stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHED), periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs), dental papilla stem cells (SCAPs), gingival mesenchymal stem cells (GMSCs), dental follicle stem cells (DFSCs), tooth germ stem cells (TGSCs) and alveolar bone-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ABMSCs). There are four common ways to harvest mature cell sheets: temperature-responsive polymer; other surface modification; non-surface modification methods; and adding a certain concentration of L-Ascorbic acid to the cell culture medium. The decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) was obtained after processing to remove cellsBack to article page
