The oral mucosa has been increasingly used as a source of cells for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine as it has a rapid turnover that can be interpreted as strong self-renewal ability. So far, it is known that the epithelial stem cells are rare and located in specific niches, but their isolation remains a challenge. Currently in Sao Paulo we are attempting to identify, isolate …

Today there is a great deal in the study of stem cells abilities to form other tissues. These features enable these cells to produce cells from different lines that actively participate in maintaining the process of homeostasis and tissue regeneration. In dentistry, Gronthos et al. 2000, found inside the dental pulp a population of stem cells that were highly proliverative, clonogenic and…
The oral mucosa has increasingly calling attention of the literature as a source of cells for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. It is recognized that the epithelial tissue is maintained by a progeny of particular cells, called stem cells, which are self maintained and characteristically present higher proliferative potential and capacity to differentiate into other types that …
