Distribution of Notch proteins in the injured dental pulp. (A) Schematic illustration showing dental pulp injury after cavity preparation. Arrowheads indicate the areas of Notch activation within the pulp. (B) Notch1 (N1) staining is visible in cells lining blood vessels within the central part of the pulp. (C) Notch3 (N3) labeling is detected in perivascular cells of the central part of the pulp. (D) Notch2 (N2) staining is mainly found in apical pulp cells at the tooth apex. (E,F) Whole mount immunostaining showing Notch2 protein distribution at the apical part of an injured pulp. Scale bars: 50 μm (B–D), 200 μm (E,F).
