Effects of pulpotomy using mineral trioxide aggregate on prostaglandin transporter and receptors in rat molars

Abstract Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) is a commonly used dental pulp-capping material with known effects in promoting reparative dentinogenesis. However, the mechanism by which MTA induces dentine repair remains unclear. The aim of the present study was to investigate the role of prostaglandin E...
