We examined the effects of bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2), -3, -4, -5, -6, and -7 on the proliferation and differentiation of bone marrow CD34+ haematopoietic progenitors in semi-solid medium. The BMPs had no effect on haematopoietic colony development when added to medium containing erythropoietin (Epo) or Interleukin-3 plus Epo. Synergistic effects with the haematopoietic cytokines stem cell factor (SCF) and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) were observed. In conjunction with GM-CSF and Epo, BMP-4 increased the number of both erythroid and granulocyte/monocyte colonies formed in semi-solid medium (P<0.01). No other BMP stimulated erythroid colony development under these conditions, while BMP-3, BMP-7 (P<0.01), BMP-5, and BMP-6 (P<0.05) stimulated granulocyte/monocyte colony formation. BMP-7 acted synergistically with stem cell factor to increase granulocyte/monocyte colony formation but not erythroid colony formation. The other BMPs did not affect either erythroid or granulocyte/monocyte colony development under these conditions. These results suggest that individual BMPs form part of the complement of cytokines regulating the development of haematopoietic progenitors, and in particular, point to a role for BMP-4 in the control of definitive, as well as embryonic erythropoiesis.

Background/purpose: Bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ), a complication arising from the use of bisphosphonates (BPs), inflicts long-term suffering on patients. Currently, there is still a lack of effective treatments. This study aimed to explore the preventive effects of propranolol (PRO) on BRONJ in vitro and in vivo, given PRO's potential in bone health enhancement.

Background/purpose: Revascularization procedures are used over apexification to treat teeth with necrotic pulp tissues and incomplete root formation. Clinically, inducing proliferation, migration, matrix deposition, and differentiation of stem cells from apical papilla (SCAPs) are critical for pulp regeneration. The study aimed to elucidate the impact of bone morphogenetic protein-4 (BMP-4) on plasminogen activation molecules and the osteogenic/odontogenic differentiation of SCAPs, as well as understand the related signaling mechanisms.

Background/purpose: -2,3,5,4'-tetrahydroxystilbene-2-O-β-D-glucoside (THSG) is a bioactive component in the Chinese herb Polygonum multiflorum, recognized for its anti-inflammatory and lipid-lowering properties. Human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) have excellent capabilities in tooth regeneration, wound healing, and neural repair. The exosomes (Exo) released by hDPSCs contain bioactive molecules that influence cell proliferation, differentiation, and immune responses.

Age-induced abnormalities in bone metabolism disrupt the equilibrium between bone resorption and formation. This largely stems from disturbances in bone homeostasis, in which signaling pathways exert a significant regulatory influence. Aging compromises the functionality of the bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs), ultimately resulting in tissue dysfunction and pathological aging.
