Calcium Transport in Specialized Dental Epithelia and Its Modulation by Fluoride

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2021
Most cells use calcium (Ca2+) as a second messenger to convey signals that affect a multitude of biological processes. The ability of Ca2+ to bind to proteins to alter their charge and conformation is essential to achieve its signaling role.

Ameloblastic Carcinoma [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Case Reports, 2015
Ameloblastic carcinoma secondary type is an extremely rare and aggressive odontogenic neoplasm that exhibits histological features of malignancy in primary and metastatic sites. It arises through carcinomatous de-differentiation of a pre-existing ameloblastoma or odontogenic cyst, typically following repeated treatments and recurrences of the benign ...

Mobility gene expression differences among wild-type, Mmp20 null and Mmp20 over-expresser mice plus visualization of 3D mouse ameloblast directional movement

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Enamel forming ameloblasts move away from the dentino-enamel junction and also move relative to each other to establish enamel shape during the secretory stage of enamel development.

THE EFFECT OF AMOXICILLIN ON THE SECRETORY STAGE OF AMELOGENESIS IN RATS [PDF]

open access: yesAlexandria Dental Journal, 2020
Introduction: Molar–incisor hypomineralization is a developmental enamel defect affecting first permanent molars and incisors. The intake of antibiotics during pregnancy and early childhood has been associated with molar incisor hypomineralization ...

Ameloblastic fibrosarcoma transformation from ameloblastic fibroma

open access: yesNational Journal of Maxillofacial Surgery, 2022
Ameloblastic fibrosarcoma (AFS) is an extremely rare malignant odontogenic tumor. It is composed of benign odontogenic epithelium, resembling that of ameloblastoma, and a mesenchymal part exhibiting features of fibrosarcoma. The development of this lesion in the jaws is either de novo or from preexisting ameloblastic fibroma ...

Targeted p120-catenin ablation disrupts dental enamel development. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
Dental enamel development occurs in stages. The ameloblast cell layer is adjacent to, and is responsible for, enamel formation. When rodent pre-ameloblasts become tall columnar secretory-stage ameloblasts, they secrete enamel matrix proteins, and the ...

The hidden depths of zebrafish skin

open access: yeseLife, 2023
Single-cell transcriptome analysis of zebrafish cells clarifies the signalling pathways controlling skin formation and reveals that some cells produce proteins required for human teeth to acquire their enamel.

Ameloblastic fibrodentinoma

open access: yesIndian Journal of Dental Research, 2011
Odontogenic tumors comprise a complex group of lesions of diverse histopathological types and clinical behavior. The group of mixed odontogenic tumors, which are also rare, is composed of proliferating odontogenic epithelium in a cellular ectomesenchyme resembling dental papilla. Ameloblastic fibrodentinoma is a rare benign odontogenic tumor.

Immunocytochemical localization of claudin 1 in the maturation ameloblasts of rat incisors

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2010
Claudin 1 is a tight junction transmembrane protein. Its localization in the maturation ameloblasts of rat incisors was examined by immunofluorescence microscopy.

Molar incisor hypomineralisation: current knowledge and practice

open access: yesInternational Dental Journal, EarlyView., 2020
Background Molar incisor hypomineralisation (MIH) is a common developmental dental condition that presents in childhood. Areas of poorly formed enamel affect one or more first permanent molars and can cause opacities on the anterior teeth. MIH presents a variety of challenges for the dental team as well as functional and social impacts for affected ...
