Introduction: Establishing an optimized regenerative microenvironment for pulp-dentin complex engineering has become increasingly critical. Recently, exosomes have emerged as favorable biomimetic nanotherapeutic tools to simulate the developmental microenvironment and facilitate tissue regeneration.

Objectives: This study aimed to elucidate the multifaceted roles of exosomes from human dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) that initiated odontogenic differentiation while sustaining mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) characteristics in odontogenesis, angiogenesis, and neurogenesis during pulp-dentin complex regeneration.

Oral submucosal fibrosis is a highly malignant oral condition that necessitates the use of sophisticated therapeutic procedures. OSF is a multifactorial precancerous condition induced by areca nut chewing, deficiencies in vitamins and trace minerals, immunological aspects, and hereditary factors. Adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells possess the capability for multidirectional activation and are extensively distributed throughout the body.

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have several important properties that make them desirable for regenerative medicine. These properties include immunomodulatory ability, growth factor production, and differentiation into various cell types. Despite extensive research and promising results in clinical trials, our understanding of MSC biology, their mechanism of action, and their targeted and routine use in clinics is limited.

Bone tissue regeneration can be affected by various architectonical features of 3D porous scaffold, for example, pore size and shape, strut size, curvature, or porosity. However, the design of additively manufactured structures studied so far was based on uniform geometrical figures and unit cell structures, which often do not resemble the natural architecture of cancellous bone. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of architectonical features of additively manufactured (aka 3D printed) titanium scaffolds designed based on microtomographic scans of fragments of human femurs of individuals of different ages on in vitro response of human bone-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hMSC).

Unlabelled: Cartilage and joint damage can lead to cartilage degeneration. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) have the potential to address cartilage damage. Hence, this study probed the mechanism of BMSC-extracellular matrix (BMSC-ECM) in promoting damaged chondrocyte repair by regulating the Notch1/RBPJ pathway.
