High-Yield Explanation
Reserve Cells/Undifferentiated Mesenchymal Cells Undifferentiated mesenchymal cells are descendants of undifferentiated cells of dental papilla, which can dedifferentiate and then redifferentiate into many cell types. Depending on the stimulus, these cells may give rise to odontoblasts and fibroblasts. These cells are found throughout the cell-rich area and the pulp core and often are related to blood vessels.
