The effect of Malaysian stingless bee, Trigona spp. honey in promoting proliferation of the undifferentiated stem cell

Stem cells provide various potential applications in regenerative medicine through its ability of self-renewal and differentiation. Among the various stem cells, dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) have shown encouraging results in their ability to regenerate. Honey has been used in traditional culture...
