Abstract
The palatal mucosa exhibits a notable ability to regenerate without causing scarring during the process of wound healing, rendering it a highly valuable reservoir of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). The aim of this review is to summarize the different sources of MSCs derived from hard palatal (PMSCs), thereby presenting a promising avenue for the utilization of regenerative medicine. Pertinent literatures focused on the sources, identification methods, and advantageous characteristics of PMSCs are obtained from PubMed and Web of Science. PMSCs, originating from the hard palate periosteum, subepithelial adipose tissue, and lamina propria, have been successfully isolated and characterized, with positive markers for MSCs and negative markers for hematopoietic stem cells. Moreover, PMSCs demonstrate resistance to inflammatory stimuli, enabling uninterrupted osteogenesis in the presence of inflammation. Additionally, PMSCs possess a notable migratory capacity, facilitating prompt arrival at the site of injury. Furthermore, PMSCs exhibit various advantageous inherent in stem cells, including clonogenicity, self-renewal capability, and pluripotent differentiation potential. PMSCs have stem cell-related properties and can be used for regenerative medicine of cells and tissues in the future.
