Abstract

Decompression has been considered a valuable tool for odontogenic cystic lesions to minimize cyst size with low morbidity and recurrence. However, whether decompression has a role in regulating stem cell properties of orofacial bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) around the cysts has not been fully investigated. The present study compared the stem cell marker profile and osteogenic differentiation potential of orofacial BMSCs prior to and following marsupialization (pre‑BMSCs vs. post‑BMSCs) in the same individuals. The results demonstrated that post‑BMSCs proliferated significantly faster, displayed higher colony‑forming unit‑fibroblast capacity and demonstrated higher expression of octamer binding protein 4, Nanog and SRY‑related HMG box 2 when compared with the pre‑BMSCs. Notably, the osteogenic potential was greater in the post‑BMSCs compared with in pre‑BMSCs, by demonstrating that the protein and mRNA expression levels of osteopontin, runt‑related transcription factor 2, osteocalcin, alkaline phosphatase and osterix were upregulated in pre‑BMSCs. Furthermore, the phosphorylated levels of extracellular signal‑regulated kinase and c‑Jun N‑terminal kinase were enhanced in post‑BMSCs. In conclusion, the study indicated that decompression influences the stem cell properties of orofacial BMSCs, and further studies are needed to verify the findings.
