Abstract
Cell population positive for the anti-STRO-1 antibody has been shown to contain mesenchymal stem cells. STRO-1-positive cells have been reported to reside in dental pulp and periodontal ligaments, while their tissue localization in developing teeth is not clear. The present study investigated localization of STRO-1 in developing rat teeth by immunohistochemistry by using light microscopy and electron microscopy.
