6 ^, N5 ]/ ~- y h! v* rCell therapy has tremendous potential in regenerative medicine, yet, there are concerns in " f0 R9 \& A0 j# S/ ~
the utility of cell therapy due to questions regarding different cell harvest and cultivation

clinical applications (Battiwalla and Hematti, 2009; Sadan et al., 2009; Satija et al.,
" A$ j1 ] _# c- k% }4 A. C. Q2009). There has been an increased interest in recent years in the potential of oral-

available source, extracted teeth (Gronthos et al., 2000; Miura et al., 2003; Seo et al., 4 L% r# S) ?5 V$ n; R k0 B- S& y
2004). These cells exhibit multipotency and regenerative capacities characteristic of 9 \6 E1 Q- c7 l, r. R
mesenchymal stem cells (Batouli et al., 2003; Shi et al., 2005) and have the capacity to

Because oral-derived stem cells have been more recently identified, clinical , D6 E% g- u' e* W
protocols are still being developed for their use. Regardless of the specific protocol

produce sufficient cell numbers for transplantation. Though a wide variety of protocols

factors (Mannello and Tonti, 2007). Despite the widespread standard use of animal

relative to its use for clinical application. ; e; @0 U5 q5 {3 z' y- j7 z" X
One of the central issues regarding limitations in using animal sera for clinical cell 1 O6 F9 S( ~* B* g
therapy protocols is that its components are highly variable and, in many cases,

that consistency between different lots cannot be assured (Price and Gregory, 1982). In ' \6 G5 G, z3 b; P
the context of multipotent stem cells, serum components and concentrations have 7 o' `) ` E+ i ^( h2 q

$ F8 H% o/ q3 ~, ?with the immunogenicity of serum proteins and the potential of transmission of prion

widespread use and study of more basic fundamental questions regarding specific
