Human dental pulp stem cells cultured in xenogeneic-free supplemented media Summary Introduction: The topic of the study is the cultivation of dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) in a xenogeneic-free culture medium. It is not permissible to use cells upon growing under the influence of xenogeneic (extraneous) substances in human clinical practice. The most frequently used in cultivation of hDPSCs is fetal calf serum (FCS/FBS). Unfortunately, these supplements are widespread in hMSCs cultivation, and all gold standard hMSCs properties were postulated in cells cultivated using these supplements. This raises the basic question if and how xenogeneic blood derivatives affect the properties of cells and their growth characteristics. There are two options for replacing these xenogeneic substances in the culture medium: the so-called serum-free media, or human blood supplements, ideally autologous ones. The conducted research was aimed at identifying the effects of xenogeneic and human blood supplements on basic hDPSCs characteristics that are fundamental to introduce the cell therapy into regular medical practice. Method: By culturing 12 hDPSC lines obtained from adult, deciduous, and natal teeth in 12 different culture media, we investigated the effect of FCS, human blood derivatives, i.e., blood plasma (HP), and...
