Abstract Background Epiregulin (EREG) is an important component of EGF and was demonstrated to promote the osteo/dentinogenic differentiation of stem cells from dental apical papilla (SCAPs). Whether EREG can stimulate the osteo/dentinogenic differentiation of dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) in infla...
