R-Spondin 2 Induces Odontogenic Differentiation of Dental Pulp Stem/Progenitor Cells via Regulation of Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling

Odontoblast cells generated from human dental pulp stem/progenitor cells (hDPSCs) secrete reparative dentin in responds to an injury. Endogenous Wnt signaling is also activated during this process, and these Wnt-activated cells are responsible for the following repair response. R-spondin 2 (Rspo2) i...
