OBJECTIVE To explore the cytotoxicity of concentrate growth factors (CGF) and the effects on the apoptosis, proliferation and differentiation of human dental pulp cells (hDPCs), which were closely correlated with future application of CGF in the treatment of dental pulpal and periapical diseases. METHODS hDPCs were isolated from permanent teeth extracted for orthodontic purpose, and expanded in vitro. hDPCs were treated with CGF and mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) respectively. The cell apoptosis, proliferation, cell cycle and ALP activity were analyzed after 1, 3 and 7 days. RESULTS Compared with the MTA group, CGF significantly promoted cell proliferation, increased the proportion of S-phase cells and ALP activity on days 3 and 7 (P<0.01). Besides, hDPCs apoptotic rates decreased in CGF group. CONCLUSIONS CGF has a good ability to promote the proliferation of dental pulp cells, resist apoptosis and induce osteogenic/odontogenic differentiation in vitro.

D017209	Apoptosis	A regulated cell death mechanism characterized by distinctive morphologic changes in the nucleus and cytoplasm, including the endonucleolytic cleavage of genomic DNA, at regularly spaced, internucleosomal sites, i.e., DNA FRAGMENTATION. It is genetically programmed and serves as a balance to mitosis in regulating the size of animal tissues and in mediating pathologic processes associated with tumor growth.

D036341	Intercellular Signaling Peptides and Proteins	Regulatory proteins and peptides that are signaling molecules involved in the process of PARACRINE COMMUNICATION. They are generally considered factors that are expressed by one cell and are responded to by receptors on another nearby cell. They are distinguished from HORMONES in that their actions are local rather than distal.
