Abstract The establishment of a method to derive dental epithelial cells seems to be an important challenge toward realizing the whole tooth regeneration. In order to obtain a source of dental epithelial-like cells, a new methodology has been previously developed by our research group. In the method, induced pluripotent stem cells are cultured in suspension in the presence of neurotrophin-4 to form embryoid bodies followed by further adherent culture of the embryoid bodies in DMEM basal nutrient medium. The present study was directed to improve the efficiency of dental epithelial-like cell production, by focusing on the optimization of initial cell number for the formation of embryoid bodies and the addition of epidermal growth factor as well as its timing. Our results demonstrated that an initial cell number of 1000 cells/drop gives the highest efficiency of dental epithelial-like cell production. It appears that, under this condition, medium deterioration is moderated, and that cell-cell interactions are optimized within embryoid bodies. On the other hand, epidermal growth factor serves to increase the abundance of dental epithelial-like cells when added to the medium together with neurotrophin-4 during embryoid body formation. The promotive effect of epidermal growth factor may involve the transactivation of TrkB, mediated by the effectors of epidermal growth factor receptor signaling.
