Mutations in the pH-Sensing G-protein-Coupled Receptor GPR68 Cause Amelogenesis Imperfecta [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Amelogenesis is the process of dental enamel formation, leading to the deposition of the hardest tissue in the human body. This process requires the intricate regulation of ion transport and controlled changes to the developing enamel matrix pH.

Carrier screening in the reproductive setting—Are there medical implications for the heterozygote?—A guide for clinicians

open access: yesPregnancy, Volume 2, Issue 3, May 2026.
Abstract Carrier screening for genetic conditions performed preconception or during pregnancy allows identification of fetal risk for inherited autosomal recessive and X‐linked conditions. The goal is to identify at‐risk patients/couples and offer them reproductive options such as preimplantation genetic diagnosis, prenatal testing, or targeted newborn

The role of WDR72 in amelogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Amelogenesis undergoes two stages; first a secretory stage followed by a maturation stage. During maturation, ameloblasts secrete kallikrein-4 (KLK4) enamel protease responsible for extra-cellular matrix degradation leading to ions deposition and enamel ...

Exonal Deletion of SLC24A4 Causes Hypomaturation Amelogenesis Imperfecta

open access: yes, 2014
Amelogenesis imperfecta is a heterogeneous group of genetic conditions affecting enamel formation. Recently, mutations in solute carrier family 24 member 4 (SLC24A4) have been identified to cause autosomal recessive hypomaturation amelogenesis imperfecta.

Mapping Dental Care for Children and Adolescents With Rare Diseases: A Brazilian Multicentre Study

open access: yesCommunity Dentistry and Oral Epidemiology, Volume 54, Issue 2, Page 163-173, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives To describe the landscape of dental care provided by specialised centres for children and adolescents with rare diseases (RDs) in the state of Minas Gerais, southeastern Brazil. Methods A retrospective cross‐sectional study was conducted involving individuals aged 0–18 years with a confirmed diagnosis of a RD who received care at ...

Validating Dental Histology for Perinatal Age Estimation Using Human Deciduous Teeth

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 189, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives This study tests the accuracy of dental histology for perinatal age estimation using deciduous teeth from modern human infants of known age. We evaluate whether enamel and dentin incremental structures, particularly the Neonatal Line (NNL), can be used to provide a reliable estimate of chronological age.

A pilot study of the genotype and phenotype in Amelogenesis Imperfecta and Molar Incisor Hypomineralization

open access: yes, 2012
Background Enamel is an external layer of the crown, and its production can be affected by genetic, systemic or environmental causes Amelogenesis Imperfecta (AI) is an inherited defect of dental enamel, and can be autosomal dominant, recessive, x-linked ...

Deletion of ameloblastin exon 6 is associated with amelogenesis imperfecta [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) describes a heterogeneous group of inherited dental enamel defects reflecting failure of normal amelogenesis. Ameloblastin (AMBN) is the second most abundant enamel matrix protein expressed during amelogenesis.

Optimizing Immunostaining of Enamel Matrix: Application of Sudan Black B and Minimization of False Positives from Normal Sera and IgGs

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2017
Non-specific fluorescence from demineralized enamel matrix can significantly compromise the immunofluorescence studies and lead to false positives. Our goal was to assess degrees of non-specific binding under different conditions and try to optimize ...
