Reduced Dietary Protein Induces Changes in the Dental Proteome

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
Low dietary protein (10%) from normal (20%) does change protein expression in tooth proteome and alter developmental pathways. Among the significant protein expressions changes are actin‐based myosins, tooth, and bone development proteins. Perplexingly tooth size is not altered, suggesting more nuanced phenotypic response to low dietary protein in ...

FAM20A Deficiency Drives Transcriptomic Dysregulation and Functional Impairment in Gingival Fibroblasts

open access: yesCell Proliferation, EarlyView.
FAM20A variants cause AI1G, marked by enamel defects, gingival overgrowth and ectopic calcifications. RNA sequencing of patient‐derived gingival fibroblasts showed dysregulated genes in adhesion, proliferation and signalling pathways. Functional assays revealed increased cell proliferation, impaired ECM interactions and osteogenesis, suggesting FAM20A ...

Multiple Calcium Export Exchangers and Pumps Are a Prominent Feature of Enamel Organ Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2017
Calcium export is a key function for the enamel organ during all stages of amelogenesis. Expression of a number of ATPase calcium transporting, plasma membrane genes (ATP2B1-4/PMCA1-4), solute carrier SLC8A genes (sodium/calcium exchanger or NCX1-3), and

Periodontal and orthodontic management of impacted canines

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract The maxillary and mandibular canines are described by many clinicians as the “cornerstone” of the arch. When in their optimal position, they play a critical role in providing a well‐balanced occlusal scheme that contributes toward functional as well as neuromuscular stability, harmony, esthetics, and dentofacial balance.

Amelogenesis imperfecta: an introduction [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Dental Journal, 2012
Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) is an inherited disorder that is associated with mutations in five genes (AMEL; ENAM; MMP20; KLK4 and FAM83H) with a wide range of clinical presentations (phenotypes). It affects the structure and appearance of enamel of all teeth, both in the primary and secondary dentition.
