    Abstract:
    Extracellular vesicles derived from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs-EVs) have great potential for bone remodeling and anti-inflammatory therapy. For the repair and reconstruction of inflammatory jawbone defects caused by periapical periodontitis, bone meal filling after debridement is commonly used in the clinic. However, this treatment has disadvantages such as large individual differences and the need for surgical operation. Therefore, it is of great significance to search for other bioactive substances that can promote jawbone regeneration in periapical periodontitis. Herein, it is found that CT results showed that local injection of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells-derived extracellular vesicles (HUC-MSCs-EVs) and bone meal filling into the alveolar bone defect area could promote bone tissue regeneration using a rat model of a jawbone defect in periapical periodontitis. Histologically, the new periodontal tissue in the bone defect area was thicker, and the number of blood vessels was higher by local injection of HUC-MSCs-EVs, and fewer inflammatory cells and osteoclasts were formed compared to bone meal filling. In vitro, HUC-MSCs-EVs can be internalized by rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs), enhancing the ability for proliferation and migration of BMSCs. Additionally, 20 μg/mL HUC-MSCs-EVs can facilitate the expression of osteogenic genes and proteins including runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and osteopontin (OPN). In summary, in vivo and in vitro experiments showed that HUC-MSCs-EVs can promote bone regeneration in periapical periodontitis, and the effect of tissue regeneration is better than that of traditional bone meal treatment. Therefore, local injection of HUC-MSCs-EVs may be an effective method to promote jawbone regeneration in periapical periodontitis.
