A comparative study of the therapeutic effect of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells versus insulin on mandibular dento-alveolar complex collagen formation and beta-catenin expression in experimentally induced type I diabetes

Objective: To assess and compare the therapeutic effect of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) versus insulin on mandibular dento-alveolar complex collagen formation and beta-catenin (β-catenin) expression in experimentally induced type I diabetes in albino rat. Design: Twenty-eight male al...

description Objective: To assess and compare the therapeutic effect of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) versus insulin on mandibular dento-alveolar complex collagen formation and beta-catenin (β-catenin) expression in experimentally induced type I diabetes in albino rat. Design: Twenty-eight male albino rats were equally divided as follows; Group I: was composed of rats which received no drug. The remaining rats were administrated a single streptozotocin (STZ) (40 mg/kg) intra-peritoneal injection. After affirmation of diabetes induction, the rats were divided into: Group II: Diabetic rats were given no treatment. Group III: Diabetic rats received a single BM-MSCs intravenous injection (1x106 cells). Group IV: Diabetic rats were given a daily insulin subcutaneous injection (5 IU/kg). After 28 days, mandibles were processed and stained by Hematoxylin & Eosin (H&E), Masson’s trichrome and anti-β-catenin antibody. A statistical analysis was performed to measure positive area% of Masson’s trichrome and β-catenin. Results: Dento-alveolar complex tissues and cells of Group II showed destructive changes histologically, while Groups III and IV demonstrated improved histological features. Group II presented almost old collagen in all dento-alveolar complex tissues, and nearly negative β-catenin expression. Groups III and IV revealed a newly formed collagen intermingled with very few areas of old collagen, and both groups showed positive β-catenin immunoreactivity. Statistically, Groups III and IV represented the highest mean values of Masson’s trichrome area% and β-catenin area%, while Group II reported the lowest mean. Conclusions: Streptozotocin has a destructive effect on the dento-alveolar complex structure and function. BM-MSCs and insulin show regenerative capacity in STZ-affected periodontal tissues, and statistically, they increase collagen formation and β-catenin expression.
