Lovastatin increases the proliferation and osteoblastic differentiation of human gingiva-derived stem cells in three-dimensional cultures.

This study demonstrated that the application of lovastatin enhanced the osteogenic differentiation of cell spheroids formed from GDSCs. This suggests that combinations of lovastatin and stem cell spheroids may have the potential for use in tissue engineering. PMID: 31602217 [PubMed]
