Abstract: Objective:The study aims to compare effect of inflammatory microenvironment on the regenerative capacitary of periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) andumbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (UCMSCs). Methods:TNF-α was applied to mimic inflammatory microenvironment. Cell proliferation assay and proliferation marker genes CCNE1, CCND1 analysis were used to compare the proliferation capacity. AnnexinV/PI staining was used to detect cellular apoptosis. Alizarin red staining and osteogenesis marker genes RUNX2, OCN analysis were used to compare the capacity of osteogenic differentiation. Results:Treatment of TNF-α resulted in an obvious decrease in the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation capacity of PDLSCs, while an increase in apoptosis of PDLSCs. In contract, treatment of TNF-α leaded to a mild decrease in the capacity of proliferation and osteogenic differentiation in UCMSCs, and a slight increase in cellular apoptosis. Conclusions:Comparing with PDLSCs, UCMSCs are more resistant to the influence of inflammatory microenvironment.
