Abstract
NF-KB signalling pathway is involved in the tooth organogenesis and eruption process, With
the elimination of NF-KB pathway could lead to a developmental detention of teeth. Hence,
this study was conducted to investigate the mechanism of NF-KB signalling in the
differentiation of SHED into odontoblast-like cells. Analysis of NF- KB signalling was divided
into two phases. The first phase was aimed to identify the optimal concentration of inhibitors,
The second phase of the study was aimed to investigate the expression of stem cell,
odontogenic, and NF-KB gene markers. Further analyses were carried out using real time RTPCR.
In conclusion, based on the gene expression analysis, this study suggested that
inhibition of NF-KB directly involves in odontogenic differentiation of SHED when cultured on
HAM with the treatment of BMP-2.
