    Tooth Decay Promotes Senescence in Dental Pulp Stem Cells, Modifying Their Biological and Proteomic Profiles

    Dental caries is a prevalent oral health problem that significantly reduces an individual's quality of life; although, it can be effectively managed through restorative treatments. Even in cases where the caries does not reach the pulp, released microbial products from the lesion can still penetrate the pulp chamber, potentially inducing stress on pulp cells. In this study, we conducted a comparative analysis of the biological and proteomic profiles of dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) isolated from clinically asymptomatic teeth with dentinal caries that had not reached the pulp and isolated from healthy teeth. Following biological evaluations, we examined proteomes of these DPSCs by conducting a shotgun proteomics approach. Our findings show that DPSCs from decayed teeth exhibit a significantly higher proportion of senescent cells. Proteomic profiling revealed upregulation of inflammatory signaling, extracellular matrix remodeling, and senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) related proteins. Additionally, we observed an upregulation in the expression of proteins associated with extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling and components of the SASP, which are hallmarks of the senescence process. The study reveals that DPSCs can be affected by stress from carious lesions, even when the pulp appears clinically intact. Senescence and inflammatory response in these affected cells may have deleterious effects on other tissues within the organism. Consequently, restorative treatments should consider targeting not only the decayed tissue but also the senescent cells within the pulp that may have been affected by the stress induced by caries.

    Capturing B Type Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Cells Using Two Types of Antibodies
    (Wiley, 2018-11-20) Icoz, Kutay; Gercek, Tayyibe; Murat, Ayseguel; Ozcan, Servet; Unal, Ekrem
    One way to monitor minimal residual disease (MRD) is to screen cells for multiple surface markers using flow cytometry. In order to develop an alternative microfluidic based method, isolation of B type acute lymphoblastic cells using two types of antibodies should be investigated. The immunomagnetic beads coated with various antibodies are used to capture the B type acute lymphoblastic cells. Single beads, two types of beads and surface immobilized antibody were used to measure the capture efficiency. Both micro and nanosize immunomagnetic beads can be used to capture B type acute lymphoblastic cells with a minimum efficiency of 94% and maximum efficiency of 98%. Development of a microfluidic based biochip incorporating immunomagnetic beads and surface immobilized antibodies for monitoring MRD can be an alternative to current cost and time inefficient laboratory methods.
