Dental Pulp Stem Cell Secretome as a Treatment to Improve Outcomes Following Stroke
Key Takeaways
  • Proteomic profiling of the dental pulp stem cell secretome identified antioxidant proteins such as SOD2, GSR, and GSTP1.
  • Secretome treatment reduced infarct volume and neuronal apoptosis while lowering ROS and NF-κB inflammatory signaling in cortex and hippocampus.
  • Treated mice showed improved motor coordination, spatial learning and memory, contextual memory, and reduced anxiety-like behavior.
