Wst-1 assay was used for cell viability evaluation. Except for the Day 2 IDC pairs, the existence of MTA significantly inhibited cell proliferation compared with the control groups. (A vs. B, C vs. D) When MTA existed, direct or indirect contact also influences cell viability significantly. Comparing B and D in Day 1, 2, or 3, direct contact with MTA significantly inhibited cell proliferation. Data represent mean values (±SD) of triplicate samples per condition. Graphs are representative of results obtained in three independent experiments. * represents for p < 0.05, ** for p < 0.01, *** for p < 0.001 and **** for p < 0.0001
