Abstract: Dental pulp stem cells(DPSCs)are a kind of adult stem cells in the dental pulp and possess high proliferation rate,self-renewal capability and multi-lineage differentiation capability,which play an important role in dental pulp repair and tooth regeneration.Recently,there are plenty of studies about culture,cell phenotype and function of DPSCs.The research progress of DPSCs is reviewed in this paper.

Key words: adult stem cell, dental pulp stem cell, regeneration, dental tissue engineering
