Human Exfoliated Deciduous Teeth Stem Cells (SHED)

Description

Product Description

Human Exfoliated Deciduous Teeth Stem Cells (SHED) were identified to be a population of highly proliferative, clonogenic cells capable of differentiating into a variety of cell types including neural cells, adipocytes, and odontoblasts. After in vivo transplantation, SHED were found to be able to induce bone formation, generate dentin, and survive in mouse brain along with expression of neural markers.
