Angiogenesis/vasculogenesis and neurogenesis are essential for pulp regeneration. Two subfractions of side-population (SP) cells, CD31(-)/CD146(-) SP cells and CD105(+) cells with angiogenic and neurogenic potential, were isolated by flow cytometry from canine dental pulp. In an experimental model of mouse hindlimb ischemia, transplantation of these cell populations resulted in an increase in blood flow, including high-density capillary formation. In a model of rat cerebral ischemia, stem cell transplantations enhanced neuronal regeneration and recovery from motor disability. Autologous transplantation of the CD31(-)/CD146(-) SP cells into an in vivo model of amputated pulp resulted in complete regeneration of pulp tissue with vascular and neuronal processes within 14 days. The transplanted cells expressed pro-angiogenic factors, implying trophic action on endothelial cells. Autologous transplantation of CD31(-)/CD146(-) SP cells or CD105(+) cells with stromal-cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1) into root canals after whole pulp removal of mature teeth resulted in complete regeneration of pulp replete with nerves and vasculature by day 14, followed by dentin formation along the dentinal wall by day 35. Therefore, the potential utility of fractionated SP cells and CD105(+) cells in angiogenesis and neurogenesis was demonstrated by treatment of limb and cerebral ischemia following pulpotomy and pulpectomy.
