ABSTRACT Human life history is derived compared to that of our closest living relatives, the great apes. It has been suggested that these derived traits are causally related to aspects of our ecology, social behaviour and cognitive abilities. However, resolving this requires that we know the evolutionary trajectory of our distinctive pattern of growth,

Periodontitis treatment and microbiome in a patient with FAM20A mutation: Case study of 1.5 years
Abstract Background Enamel‐renal‐gingival syndrome (ERGS) is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the FAMily with sequence similarity 20A (FAM20A) gene, and is characterized by amelogenesis imperfecta, delayed or failed tooth eruption, and periodontitis.

Ameloblastic carcinoma of maxilla
Ameloblastic carcinoma (AC) is a rare malignant lesion with characteristic histologic features and clinical behavior that dictates a more aggressive surgical approach than that of a simple ameloblastoma. The tumor cells resemble the cells seen in ameloblastoma, but they show cytologic atypia.

The Meaning of Mangabey Molars (And Premolars)
ABSTRACT The postcanine teeth of mangabeys (members of Cercocebus and Lophocebus) have figured prominently in discussions about the relationship between hard‐object feeding and dental form. Grey‐cheeked mangabeys (Lophocebus albigena) and sooty mangabeys (Cercocebus atys) both have thickly enameled posterior teeth.

Ameloblastic fibrosarcoma – A rarity?
Ameloblastic fibrosarcoma (AFS) is a rare malignant odontogenic tumour classified by the WHO (1992) as an odontogenic sarcoma and defined as "a neoplasm with a similar structure to ameloblastic fibroma (AF) but in which the ectomesenchymal component shows the features of a sarcoma." The first report of AFS was published by Heath in 1887.

The Importance of Connexin 43 in Enamel Development and Mineralization
During enamel development, formation of hydroxyapatite crystals and regulation of pH in the enamel matrix require massive transport of ions. Both ameloblasts and adjacent dental epithelial cells in the stellate reticulum co-express several transmembrane ...

4-phenylbutyrate Mitigates Fluoride-Induced Cytotoxicity in ALC Cells
Chronic fluoride over-exposure during pre-eruptive enamel development can cause dental fluorosis. Severe dental fluorosis is characterized by porous, soft enamel that is vulnerable to erosion and decay.

Expression of steroid receptors in ameloblasts during amelogenesis in rat incisors
Endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) play a part in the modern burst of diseases and interfere with the steroid hormone axis. Bisphenol A (BPA), one of the most active and widely used EDCs, affects ameloblast functions, leading to an enamel ...
