Abstrakt: Background: The present study aimed to evaluate the viability of human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) exposed to boric acid (BA) and injectable platelet-rich fibrin (I-PRF).
Materials and Methods: hDPSCs were isolated from impacted third molars. Nine milliliters of whole blood was transferred to I-PRF tubes and centrifuged at 700 rpm for 3 minutes. A BA solution was prepared by dissolving BA in a 0.1 g/ml stock solution. The cells were divided into four groups: control, I-PRF, BA, and BA + I-PRF. Cell viability was evaluated using flow cytometry. Mineralized calcium nodules were observed using Alizarin Red staining. The data were analyzed using two-way analysis of variance and Tukey's HSD test (p<0.05).
Results: The highest percentage of viable cells was in the I-PRF group, and the lowest percentage of viable cells was in the BA group at all times. Larger calcium nodules were observed in the BA group compared to the other groups.
Conclusion: The use of I-PRF with or without BA had a positive effect on cell viability. BA and I-PRF affected the formation of mineralized calcium nodules. I-PRF and BA may be used in combination because these substances minimally reduce cell viability and promote mineralized nodule formation.
