Amelogenin Exon 5 Peptide Promotes Cell Proliferation and Osteogenic Differentiation in Human Dental Pulp Stem Cells

Applied Sciences, 2019
Amelogenin is a complex enamel matrix protein that consists of various molecular-size proteins and amino acids. A spliced form of amelogenin was identified that included exons 2, 3, 5, 6, and 7.

Efficient induction of functional ameloblasts from human keratinocyte stem cells

Stem Cell Research & Therapy, 2018
Background Although adult human tissue-derived epidermal stem cells are capable of differentiating into enamel-secreting ameloblasts and forming teeth with regenerated enamel when recombined with mouse dental mesenchyme that possesses odontogenic ...

Itm2a expression in the developing mouse first lower molar, and the subcellular localization of Itm2a in mouse dental epithelial cells. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Itm2a is a type II transmembrane protein with a BRICHOS domain. We investigated the temporospatial mRNA and protein expression patterns of Itm2a in the developing lower first molar, and examined the subcellular localization of Itm2a in murine dental ...

Structural Porosity and Low Mineral Density in Enamel Rods Drive Molar Incisor Hypomineralisation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study uses advanced imaging modalities on multiple length scales to show that molar‐incisor hypomineralization does not present as a locally homogeneous pathology. Instead, microstructural defects, characterized through non‐mineralized, protein‐rich sheaths and an altered mineral structure in between prism rods, resulting in local differences in ...

Co-Immunoprecipitation Reveals Interactions Between Amelogenin and Ameloblastin via Their Self-Assembly Domains

Frontiers in Physiology, 2020
Macromolecular assembly of extracellular enamel matrix proteins (EMPs) is intimately associated with the nucleation, growth, and maturation of highly organized hydroxyapatite crystals giving rise to healthy dental enamel.

Cell Calcification Models and Their Implications for Medicine and Biomaterial Research

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Calcification, is the process by which the tissues containing minerals are formed, occurring during normal physiological processes, or in pathological conditions. Here, it is aimed to give a comprehensive overview of the range of cell models available, and the approaches taken by these models, highlighting when and how methodological divergences arise,

Ti6Al4V‐Bioglass‐Copper Composites for Load‐Bearing Implants

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
We have designed and manufactured a novel Ti64‐based composite by adding 45S5 bioglass (BG) and copper (Cu). Adding BG on titanium improves wear resistance and biocompatibility, whereas Cu addition improves mechanical strength while providing inherent lifelong bacterial resistance.

Influence of salivary conditioning and sucrose concentration on biofilm-mediated enamel demineralization [PDF]

Journal of Applied Oral Science, 2020
The acquired pellicle formation is the first step in dental biofilm formation. It distinguishes dental biofilms from other biofilm types. Objective To explore the influence of salivary pellicle formation before biofilm formation on enamel ...
