Figure Lengend Snippet: (a) Schematic diagram showing the regulation of the DPSC differentiation process based on IES. The fluorescence imaging (b) and bright-field images (c) of DPSCs stained with AM/PI and oil red after IES treatment with 0.8 V for 5 min at 20 s of impulse width under different days, respectively. (d) Bright-field images of DPSCs stained with alizarin red during the differentiation process by IES. All the scale bars are 100 μm. (e) Average fluorescence intensity of ALP within DPSCs after IES treatment at 0.8 V for 5 min on different days during the differentiation process. (f) Fluorescence intensity of Ca 2+ within DPSCs heat map during the differentiation process after IES. (g) Immunofluorescence imaging of dentin sialophosphoprotein (DSPP) within DPSCs stimulated with IES under different days. The cell nucleus was stained with nuclear dye of 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) (1 μM); the scale bar is 100 μm. (h) Fluorescence intensity of DSPP within DPSCs during the cell differentiation process, calculated using the software of Image-J. *** P < 0.0001, representing the statistical significance, which was calculated under the two-tailed Student’s t -test. (i) Average length changes of DPSCs after IES treatment under different days.
