- Mitochondrial transplantation enhances viability and odontogenic differentiation of human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs).
- Optimal mitochondrial transplant rate observed at a recipient-to-donor cell ratio of 1:3.
- Mito-hDPSCs show increased formation of dentin-pulp-like tissue in vivo.
- Ca2+ signaling and TFAP2A identified as key factors in odontogenic differentiation.
- Mitochondrial transplantation upregulates TFAP2A expression via increased intracellular Ca2+ concentration.
- Study suggests mitochondrial transplantation promotes dentin-pulp complex regeneration through Ca2+/TFAP2A signaling.
