Effects of EZH2 inhibitor, trichostatin A, and 5-azacytidine combinatorial treatment on osteogenic differentiation of dental pulp stem cells

Epigenetic mechanisms play regulatory roles in dental pulp stem cell (DPSC) differentiation. The molecules that modulate these mechanisms can be used to enhance DPSC differentiation in experimental studies and clinical applications. We investigated the combined effects of an epigenetic modulator enhancer of zeste homologue 2 inhibitor (EZH2i), trichostatin A (TSA), and 5-azacytidine (5-AZA) on the osteogenic differentiation of DPSCs.
