Abstract(s)
A descoberta das células estaminais mesenquimatosas e o conhecimento das suas propriedades e mecanismos inerentes, permitiu enfatizar a sua importância na área da medicina regenerativa, como terapêutica alternativa em diversas patologias. Estas células são acessíveis, prevalecem durante toda a vida e apresentam capacidade de autorrenovação e multipotência. A elevada prevalência da doença periodontal e a necessidade de reparação e regeneração dos tecidos, levou à investigação de terapias alternativas face às convencionais, que visam apenas cessar a progressão da periodontite. A presente revisão aborda conceitos e princípios recentes, relativos ao uso de células estaminais na regeneração dos tecidos periodontais, com o objetivo de concluir quais os tipos de células estaminais mais indicados para o restabelecimento da anatomia e função destes tecidos.
The discovery of mesenchymal stem cells and the awareness of its properties and mechanisms, allowed to emphasize the importance of its applications in the area of regenerative medicine. These cells are available, remain during the entire life and present self-renewal and multipotent capacities. The high prevalence of periodontal disease and the need for repair and regeneration of the damaged tissues, led to the search for alternative therapies as opposed to the conventional ones that aim only to stop the progression of the periodontitis. The following revision, addresses the recent concepts and principals regarding the use of stem cells on the regeneration of periodontal tissue, with the purpose of find out which kind of stem cells are more indicated for the recovery of the anatomy and function of said tissues.
