This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR), part of the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research Federal Grant Program (CFDA 93.121), provides $243,750 to The Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania, doing business as the Clinical Practices of the University of Pennsylvania, to explore the use of the FDA-approved iron oxide nanoparticle formulation ferumoxytol to activate orofacial mesenchymal stem/progenitor cells (OMSCs) and promote their regenerative potential for craniofacial tissue repair. The research aims to determine how ferumoxytol activates the YAP/TAZ signaling pathway in OMSCs to enhance their stemness, proliferation, osteogenic differentiation, and immunomodulatory properties. This translational study will investigate the efficacy of ferumoxytol-mediated OMSC activation in a mouse model of periodontitis to evaluate its capacity for endogenous craniofacial tissue regeneration. The award period runs from August 12, 2024 to July 31, 2026.
