The process of ectopic bone formation suggests that extraskeletal cells are capable of osteogenesis. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity is considered to be an early marker of osteogenic differentiation. This study determined whether cells from the rabbit dermis, striated muscle and extramedullary adipose tissue could undergo osteogenic differentiation in vitro. The cells were cultured with two osteoregulators, recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein 2 (rhBMP2) and dexamethasone. Incubation of extramedullary adipose cells with a combination of rhBMP2 and dexamethasone resulted in an increase in their ALP activity. The results suggest that extramedullary adipocytic cells may undergo osteogenic differentiation.

Rotator cuff tears are the most common conditions in sports medicine and attract increasing attention. Scar tissue healing at the tendon-bone interface results in a high rate of retears, making it a major challenge to enhance the healing of the rotator cuff tendon-bone interface. Biomaterials currently employed for tendon-bone healing in rotator cuff tears still exhibit limited efficacy.

This study aims to clarify the effects of bioceramic interface cues on macrophages. Recently, there have been many researches exploring the effects of interface topography cues on macrophage polarization and cytokine secretion. However, the effects and underlying mechanisms of bioceramic interface cues on macrophages still need exploring.

Background: Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent regulatory cell death, which plays an essential role in bone loss. This study investigated whether the mechanism of risperidone (RIS)-induced bone loss is related to ferroptosis.
Methods: The schizophrenia mice were induced by administering MK-801.

Background: Interaction between mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) cells plays a major role in OSCC progression. However, little is known about adipogenic differentiation alteration in OSCC-derived MSCs (OSCC-MSCs) and how these alterations affect OSCC growth.
Methods: MSCs were successfully isolated and cultured from normal gingival tissue, OSCC peritumoral tissue, and OSCC tissue.

To investigate the effect of concentrated growth factor (CGF) on the biological performance of human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) under oxidative stress status induced by hydrogen peroxide (HO). The hDPSCs were isolated by using tissue block separation method from healthy permanent teeth extracted for orthodontic reason. hDPSCs surface markers CD34, CD45, CD90 and CD105 were detected by flow cytometry.
