iRoot SP Promotes Osteo/Odontogenesis of Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells via Activation of NF-κB and MAPK Signaling Pathways

Figure 1

Optimum dose and effects of iRoot SP on BMSC proliferation. (a) Primary BMSCs with fibroblast- or spindle-like morphology. (b) Cells in passage 3. . (c) ALP activity of BMSCs cultured with different concentrations of SP at day 5. . (d) iRoot SP at 0.2 mg/ml greatly promoted the ALP mRNA expression in BMSCs after 5 days compared with the control group. . (e, f) Flow cytometry (FCM) analysis for control and SP-treated BMSCs. (g) After 9 days, the CCK-8 assay showed no remarkable differences in cellular proliferation between 0.2 mg/ml SP-treated BMSCs and untreated BMSCs.
