Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesExpression of Exosome-Derived MicroRNAs miR-21 and miR-135 are Differentially Regulated Among Dental Pulp Stem CellsMatthew Hunsaker, Brandon Richards, Adelle Fuller et al.Dental Pulp Stem Cells (DPSCs) are a type of mesenchymal stem cell that has the potential to differentiate into various types of cells and tissue. Previous research has demonstrated that DPSCs can be easily accessed and isolated from both permanent and deciduous teeth, such as wisdom teeth or third molars, although there is less information available about the mechanisms and … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 10 Jan 2023 · 10,541 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesDifferential Expression of Cellular and Exosomal MicroRNA Isolated from Oral Cancer Cells and their Resistance to ChemotherapyBrady Petersen, Carl Yu, Samuel Hutchings et al.MicroRNAs are abundant small non-coding RNA with a variety of known functions, including transcriptional activation and inhibition. Recent evidence has suggested that microRNA expression may influence the responsiveness of some cancers to chemotherapy, including liver and lung cancers. Some evidence has now suggested that specific microRNAs, such as miR-21, miR-155, and miR-375, may influence oral cancer responsiveness to chemotherapy – … …Current Research in Dentistry, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 29 Jul 2022 · 5,906 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesEffects of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) on Dental Pulp Stem Cells (DPSC)Eric Mullins, Cale Forgues, Karl KingsleyDental Pulp Stem Cells (DPSCs) are non-embryonic, mesenchymal stem cells that may have significant potential for therapeutic and regenerative biomedical applications. Studies of DPSC differentiation have demonstrated the potential to form many tissue types, including neural, osteogenic and vascular precursors using cytokines and growth factors, such as Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF). Eight previously isolated Dental Pulp Stem Cell (DPSC) … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 1 Jun 2019 · 13,835 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesExpression of microRNA miR-27, miR-124 and miR-218 Among Dental Pulp Stem Cell (DPSC) IsolatesMark Whiting, Karl KingsleyDental Pulp Stem Cells (DPSCs) are non-embryonic, mesenchymal stem cells that may have significant potential for therapeutic and regenerative biomedical applications. MicroRNAs are small non-coding RNA molecules that can act as transcriptional activators and repressors in many types of mesenchymal stem cells. To date, few studies have evaluated the expression or activity of microRNAs among dental pulp stem cells. Using … …Current Research in Dentistry, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 1 Jan 2019 · 8,173 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesIsolation and Identification of Oral Cancer Stem Cells (CSC) within Commercially Available Cell LinesRobert Chauncey, Kai Hatch, Toni Jilka et al.Previous studies have demonstrated some tumors develop or maintain a small sub-population of cells with stem cell-like properties. This Cancer Stem Cells (CSC) may exhibit differential properties that allow their escape from traditional radiation or chemotherapy treatments and may therefore be responsible for cancer recurrence. Few studies have explored this phenomenon among oral cancer cell lines, therefore the objective of … …Current Research in Dentistry, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 2 Jun 2018 · 12,722 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesCariogenic Pathogen Scardovia Wiggsiae Screening Among Pediatric Orthodontic Patients: A Pilot StudyWeston Milne, Ghazaleh Rezaei, Adam Whiteley, Karl KingsleyDental caries remains one of the most prevalent oral health diseases in the United States, affecting nearly half of all children and a majority of adults. Most medically important cariogenic bacteria, including Streptococcus, Lactobacillus, Actinomyces and Veillonella species are well known, although recent evidence has identified the new cariogenic pathogen Scardovia wiggsiae (S. wiggsiae) among children and minorities with severe … …Current Research in Dentistry, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 6 Oct 2017 · 11,875 accessesView PDF Cite
