[0002] Stem cells exist in different parts of the human body, such as hematopoietic, neural, and mesenchymal tissues, and exhibit different degrees of tissue reconstruction ability. Among them, dental pulp stem cells are pluripotent stem cells derived from dental pulp tissue. They have rich sources, relatively painless and less risky acquisition processes, the ability of self-renewal, can maintain proliferative activity for a long time in in vitro culture, have low immunogenicity, can also secrete growth factors to stimulate angiogenesis, thereby promoting tissue repair and regeneration, and can release a series of anti-inflammatory factors to reduce inflammatory responses. Dental pulp stem cells have high gene stability, are not prone to malignant transformation, and do not involve ethical issues during use.

[0087] The cell survival rate was calculated by live-dead staining. The primary dental pulp stem cells obtained in Example 4 and the dental pulp stem cells in the mixed solution of dental pulp stem cells obtained in Examples 5-7 were used for the experiment. Among them, the dental pulp stem cells in the mixed solution of dental pulp stem cells were obtained by culturing the passaged dental pulp stem cells overnight in the coexistence of an activity-maintaining reagent, and then taken out, dispersed and resuspended. The above-mentioned dental pulp stem cells were respectively placed in a 12-well plate, with 8×10 4 cells / mL in each well, and three parallel groups were set. They were cultured in an incubator at 37°C and 5% carbon dioxide for 4 h. Then, 60 μL of propidium iodide (50 μg / mL PBS buffer) and 500 μL of fluorescein diacetate were added to each well and incubated at room temperature for 3 min. After that, they were rinsed with DPBS buffer and observed under a fluorescence microscope. The cell survival rate was calculated according to the following formula:
[0088] Cell survival rate = number of live cells (number of green-stained cells) / total number of cells × 100%.
[0089] The experimental results are as follows Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown Figure 2 is a fluorescence microscope image at 40×. It can be seen from Figure 2 that under live-dead staining, there are more green-stained cells in the dental pulp stem cells of Examples 4-7. It can be seen from Figure 3 that the activity-maintaining reagent can maintain a relatively high survival rate of passaged dental pulp stem cells, not lower than that of primary dental pulp stem cells.
[0090] III. Animal experiment I:
[0091] 1) Remove the periodontal tissue, crown, 2-mm root tip, surface enamel, cementum and predentin on the pulp cavity side of the tooth. After ultrasonic cleaning with distilled water, it was successively placed in EDTA solutions with different concentrations for gradient demineralization (18 mol / L, 10 min; 10 mol / L, 5 min; 5 mol / L, 10 min), and then ground to obtain particles with a particle size of 200 μm. After autoclaving (121°C, 30 min) and ultraviolet disinfection for 30 min, it was stored at 4°C for later use to obtain dentin matrix;
[0092] 2) Eight-week-old male ICR mice were randomly divided into ten groups, with 15 mice in each group. Except for the first group, the other nine groups corresponded to Examples 5-10 and Comparative Examples 1-3 respectively. Taking the injection preparation obtained in Example 8 as an example, the injection preparation was added to the dentin matrix, and the mass ratio of the two was 1:1. After mixing, it was quickly mixed evenly for 30 s and stored at 4 °C for later use to obtain experimental samples. The first group only involved the dentin matrix;
[0093] 3) The mice were anesthetized and treated in a laminar flow hood. The back skin of the mice was disinfected with iodophor. A 1.5-cm incision parallel to the spine was made on the back with a sterile scalpel. The skin and subcutaneous tissue on both sides of the incision were separated with forceps. The experimental samples were placed subcutaneously, one on each side. Then the wound was sutured, erythromycin ointment was applied, and a 3M sterile dressing was applied to protect the wound. At the 5th week, the experimental samples placed on both sides were collected;
[0094] 4) The experimental samples obtained in 3) were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde for 24 h, then rinsed with running water, placed in a 10% EDTA solution for gradient demineralization. After 3 d, the sample could be penetrated by a needle. They were successively placed in ethanol solutions of 75%, 85%, 95%, 100%, and 100% for dehydration, 1 h each time, then placed in xylene for 1 h, embedded in paraffin, sectioned, with a thickness of 3 μm, baked at 60 °C, and stored at 4 °C for later use;
[0095] 5) The sections obtained in 4) were stained with HE, the staining results were photographed and recorded, and processed with ImageJ software to record the thickness of the newly formed periodontal ligament-like tissue.
[0096] 6) At the 5th week, the tail vein blood of the mice was drawn for hematological detection and blood biochemical index detection.
[0097] The experimental results are as Figure 4 shown. It can be seen from Figure 4 that in the nude mouse subcutaneous ectopic transplantation experiment, after the injection preparations obtained in Examples 8-10 (the fifth to seventh groups) were used, the thickness of the newly formed periodontal ligament-like tissue could be effectively increased, proving that the injection preparations obtained in Examples 8-10 could enhance the regeneration of dental pulp and dentin, thereby repairing the defects related to dental pulp and dentin. When the components of the microcarrier complex were incomplete, this effect would be severely affected, as shown by the thickness of the newly formed periodontal ligament-like tissue in Comparative Examples 1-3 (the eighth to tenth groups). At the same time, Examples 5-7 (the second to fourth groups) only involved the dental pulp stem cell mixture, and the thickness values of their newly formed periodontal ligament-like tissue were relatively close, but also higher than those of the first group.
[0098] Figure 5 Show the test results of alanine aminotransferase ALT and aspartate aminotransferase AST in blood biochemical indexes, Figure 6 Show the test results of blood urea nitrogen BUN and creatinine CRE in blood biochemical indexes. It can be seen from Figure 5 andFigure 6 It can be seen that there are no statistically significant differences in the blood biochemical test results among the groups of mice, indicating that the substances obtained in Examples 5-10 and Comparative Examples 1-3 will not have an obvious impact on the organ functions of mice.
[0099] IV. Animal Experiment II:
[0100] 1) Male New Zealand white rabbits at 2 months of age were used for the experiment. They were randomly divided into eight groups, with 15 rabbits in each group. After anesthesia, they were placed in the supine position, and their limbs were fixed. The hair was removed from the areas about 5 cm inside and outside and about 9 cm above and below the knee joint, and then disinfected and covered with drapes.
[0101] 2) A midline anterior knee incision was made to cut through the skin and subcutaneous tissue, exposing the patellar ligament and patella. Entered through the muscle space between the tendon part of the patellar ligament at the upper pole of the patella and the vastus medialis muscle to cut open the joint capsule, dislocating the patella outward to expose the trochlea of the femur. The tissues around the trochlea of the femur were retracted, and a dental bone drill was used to create a model in the middle of the trochlea of the femur covered by the patella. The diameter of the model was 5 mm and the depth was 2 mm. Except for the first group, the above treatment was performed on the remaining seven groups.
[0102] 3) The injection preparations obtained in Examples 8-10 and Comparative Examples 1-3 were injected into the defect area, slightly higher than the modeling plane during injection, and irradiated locally with a point light source to make it photocured. Finally, the local defect was repaired smoothly, the patella was reduced, the joint capsule was sutured tightly, and the skin and subcutaneous tissues were sutured intermittently in layers.
[0103] 4) At 4, 8, and 12 weeks, the rabbits were sacrificed, and the distal femur of the rabbit knee joint was intercepted. The cartilage defect area was opened to observe the repair situation of this area, including the area, depth, tissue color, morphology, smoothness of the defect area, and the integration with the surrounding normal cartilage tissue, etc. Quantitative evaluation was carried out according to the ICRS gross evaluation method for cartilage repair. The ICRS gross evaluation involves the degree of defect repair, the degree of marginal fusion, and macroscopic observation. Each item has a full score of 4 points. An ICRS gross score of 12 points indicates normal, 8-11 points indicates close to normal, 4-7 points indicates abnormal, and 1-3 points indicates extremely abnormal.
[0104] The experimental results are as Figure 7 shown. It can be Figure 7 seen that using a cartilage defect model for verification, the injection preparations obtained in Examples 8-10 (the third to fifth groups) have a good cartilage repair effect and are basically close to normal after 12 weeks. Similarly, when the components of the microcarrier complex are incomplete, the cartilage repair effect of the obtained injection preparation will be affected, as shown in the experimental results of Comparative Examples 1-3 (the sixth to eighth groups).
