Tissue Engineering Using Differentiation of Endometrial Stem Cells into Ameloblast Cells and Implantation on Hydroxyapatite and Collagen Nanocomposite Scaffold

Biomedical and Biotechnology Research Journal
Background: Dental tissue engineering (DTE) is an inspiring biological approach to replacing lost teeth. The strength of the differentiation of basic endometrial cells to ameloblasts is yet to be fully understood. Moreover, the construction of a scaffold,

Msx2 in ameloblast cell fate and activity

Frontiers in Physiology, 2015
While many effectors have been identified in enamel matrix and cells via genetic studies, physiological networks underlying their expression levels and thus the natural spectrum of enamel thickness and degree of mineralization are now just emerging ...

Dental development in the tropical gar (Atractosteus tropicus) and the evolution of vertebrate dentitions

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Dentitions have diversified enormously during vertebrate evolution, involving reductions, modifications, or allocations to prey seizing and processing regions. A combination of ancient and novel features related to dental and oropharyngeal apparatuses is found in extant lineages of non‐teleost fishes, such as the gars.

On the pattern of ameloblast migration

Cell Proliferation, 1989
Abstract The kinetics of ameloblast cells in continuously growing guinea pig molars were studied using autoradiography. The results showed that there was no direct relationship between ameloblast migration rate and ameloblast production rate, which indicated that ameloblasts actively migrated coronally.

Jaw‐specific stem cell dynamics are associated with distinct enamel architecture in mouse incisors

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The continuously growing mouse incisor serves as a model for stem cell‐driven tooth renewal. Although mice possess maxillary and mandibular incisors, most studies have focused on the mandible. Potential differences in structure and renewal between these serially homologous organs remain insufficiently characterized.

Proteomic signatures of equine dental tooth tissues in ageing and disease

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Ageing and dental disease in horses lead to structural and functional deterioration of dental tissues, yet their molecular signatures remain poorly characterised. Understanding how these processes alter the protein composition of enamel, dentin, cementum and pulp is essential for improving equine oral health and identifying ...

The Unfolded Protein Response in Amelogenesis and Enamel Pathologies

Frontiers in Physiology, 2017
During the secretory phase of their life-cycle, ameloblasts are highly specialized secretory cells whose role is to elaborate an extracellular matrix that ultimately confers both form and function to dental enamel, the most highly mineralized of all ...

WDR72 Drives Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Progression by Inhibiting Autophagy via the PI3K/Akt/mTOR Pathway

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is an aggressive malignancy with a high rate of recurrence and metastasis, necessitating the identification of novel therapeutic targets. WD repeat‐containing protein 72 (WDR72) has been linked to various cancers, but its specific biological function and underlying mechanism in ESCC remain largely ...

Chromatin Remodeller BRD9 Orchestrates Odontoblastic Differentiation via Coordinating RUNX2‐KLF4

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
During odontoblast lineage commitment, the chromatin remodeller BRD9 acts as a critical epigenetic coordinator, orchestrating the chromatin landscape to facilitate synergistic binding of key transcription factors RUNX2 and KLF4 to target loci for odontogenesis.

Focal Adhesion Kinase Expression in Ameloblastoma: A Preliminary Observational Study [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2017
Introduction: Focal Adhesion Kinase (FAK) is a membraneassociated molecule, which plays a major role in tumourigenesis by promoting cell survival, proliferation, migration, and invasion.
