Aim: To investigate hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-induced responsiveness in pulp cells using heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) immunolabelling, Jun-D immunolabelling to study the effects of H2O2 on odontoblastic differentiation and CD90+/CD73+/CD105+/CD45- cell counting for in vivo identification of mesenchymal stem cells in the pulp. Methodology: The maxillary molars of 50 rats were treated with a bleaching gel (35% H2O2, 1 × 30 min) or placebo gel (control groups). At 2, 3, 7, 15 and 30 days after the treatment (n = 10), inflammation in pulp tissue was analysed by haematoxylin–eosin staining, HO-1- and Jun-D-immunolabelled cells were counted in each third of the pulp chamber, and the number of CD90+/CD73+/CD105+/CD45- cells was quantified by immunofluorescence. The results were assessed using the Paired t-test or Wilcoxon signed-rank test (P < 0.05). Results: Significant H2O2-induced inflammation was noted at 2 and 3 days (P < 0.05), with tertiary dentine formation occurring from 7 days. The bleached specimens had greater HO-1 immunolabelling in the middle and cervical thirds of the coronal pulp at 2 and 3 days, in all thirds at 7 days, and in the occlusal third at 15 days (P < 0.05), and significant nuclear Jun-D immunolabelling in the cervical third at 2 and 3 days and in the occlusal and middle thirds at 7 days (P < 0.05). Bleached and control groups had low numbers of CD90+/CD73+/CD105+/CD45- cells in the pulp at all periods (P > 0.05). Conclusions: Pulp cells responded to oxidative stress by expressing HO-1 during the post-bleaching inflammation phase until the beginning of the repair phase. Jun-D expression occurred during the reduction of inflammation and the beginning of tertiary dentine production. The presence of oxidative stress did not influence the number of CD90+/CD73+/CD105+/CD45- cells identified in vivo in the dental pulp.
