Cells obtained from calvariae of fetal rats, human gingival connective tissue and periodontal ligament of rat molars were each co-cultured in vitro with non-demineralized and partly demineralized root slices in nutrient medium containing 50 μGg/ml ascorbic acid and 10 mM B-glyeerophosphate, in order to determine whether the root slices could affect the phenotype expressed by the cells. The cultures were examined by light and transmission electron microscopy. Nodules of bone-like tissue, resembling those previously described by others, were observed in the multilayers of cells obtained from rat calvariae. but not in the multilayers of gingival and periodontal ligament cells, after 30 days of culture. Calvaria cells associated with the root slices produced tissues exhibiting ultrastructure that resembled that of bone or cellular cementum. acellular cemenlum and afibrillar cementum in vivo when examined after the same length of time. The tissues were never found in cultures of gingival fibroblasts or periodontal ligament cells. These observations suggest, first, that cells derived from bone can express in vitro the phenotype for the cementums; second, that cells obtained from human gingival and rat periodontal ligament do not do so when cultured under similar conditions; and third, the possibility that the osteoblasts, cementoblasts and their progenitors that are found in the periodontal ligament could, at least in part, have their origin and migrate there from the endosteal spaces of the alveolar process.
