Figure 8. IR1 tracing distinct cell populations simultaneously in the pulp and PDL.

(A) Schematic illustration of lineaging tracing in PdgfraCreER× IR1, Nfatc1DreER× IR1 and PdgfraCreER×Nfatc1DreER× IR1 mice. (B) Schematic diagram of the IR1 working principle. (C) 3D reconstruction of maxilla M1 using Imaris, including pulp and PDL with virtual dentin shell (white) (scale bar = 200 μm). The image stack was displayed in buccal view, coronal view, and radicular view of PDL (D) and pulp (E), respectively.

(A) Schematic illustration of lineaging tracing in Nfatc1DreER× IR1 and PdgfraCreER×Nfatc1DreER× IR1 mice. (B) Schematic diagram of the IR1 working principle. (C-D) 3D reconstruction of maxilla M1 using DICOM-3D in Nfatc1DreER× IR1 (C) and PdgfraCreER×Nfatc1DreER× IR1 (D) mice, including pulp and PDL (scale bar = 200 μm). The image stack was displayed in buccal view, coronal view, andradicular view of PDL and pulp , respectively. In PDL, ZsGreen+ cells in green, tdTomato+ cells in rose red; in pulp, ZsGreen+ cells in purple, tdTomato+ cells in blue.
The image stack was displayed in buccal view, coronal view, and radicular view. Scale bar: 200 μm.
