F1000Research, 2021 Human enamel once formed cannot be biologically repaired or replaced. Saliva has a significant role in remineralization of dental enamel. It not only has a buffering capacity to neutralize the oral cavity’s low pH generated after acidic encounters, but ...

Microbiome, 2023 Background Dental erosion is a disease of the oral cavity where acids cause a loss of tooth enamel and is defined as having no bacterial involvement. The tooth surface is protected from acid attack by salivary proteins that make up the acquired enamel ...

Study protocol on the impact of postnatal maternal separation stress on dental enamel formation in a murine experimental model. [PDF]
PLoS ONEDental development is a complex process influenced by genetic and environmental factors. Dental enamel, primarily composed of hydroxyapatite, is formed through complex cellular and biochemical mechanisms.

Targeted overexpression of amelotin disrupts the microstructure of dental enamel. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 We have previously identified amelotin (AMTN) as a novel protein expressed predominantly during the late stages of dental enamel formation, but its role during amelogenesis remains to be determined. In this study we generated transgenic mice that produce

Molecular Medicine Reports, 2016 Amelogenesis, beginning with thickened epithelial aggregation and ending with highly mineralized enamel formation, is a process mediated by a complex signaling network that involves several molecules, including growth and transcription factors. During early tooth development, the transcription factor B‑cell CLL/lymphoma 11B (Bcl11b) participates in ...

Archives of Histology and Cytology, 2000 The expression of heat shock protein (Hsp) 25 during odontogenesis in the dental pulp and enamel organ of rat incisors was investigated by immunocytochemistry and confocal microscopy. In the process of dentin formation, immature odontoblasts first exhibited Hsp 25-immunoreactivity, and increased in immunointensity with the advance of their ...

Advancing non-destructive sex determination on human dental enamel using Raman spectroscopy [PDF]
Scientific ReportsBiological sex determination is essential for analyzing human skeletal remains in archaeology, anthropology, and forensic science. This study investigates whether Raman spectroscopy of intact human dental enamel can be used as a non-destructive method ...

Protein Extraction from Dental Enamel v1 [PDF]
, 2023 This protocol details a method for extracting proteins from ~5mg of powdered dental enamel for proteomic analysis by LC-MS/MS. This procedure includes the use of alkylating and reducing agents, a sample cleanup step, and features the optional addition of synthetic peptide heavy standards for absolute quantification and quality control of the analysis.

Abundant Calcium Homeostasis Machinery in Rat Dental Enamel Cells [PDF]
European Journal of Biochemistry, 1996 Enamel cells handle large amounts of calcium, particularly during the developmental phase (termed maturation) when dental enamel is hypermineralized. The extent of intracellular calcium burden, and the nature of calcium homeostasis machinery used to accommodate it, are largely unknown. Here, the calcium‐binding capacity of enamel cell cytosol was found
