Sex- and Age-related Differences in Primary and Secondary Dentin Formation [PDF]
Advances in Dental Research, 2001 Clinical studies carried out on dentin thickness in adults, as well as experimental studies carried out on ovariectomized animals, indicate that odontoblast activity, like that of osteoblastic cells, differs in the two sexes. To examine the evidence for differences in odontoblast activity before puberty, we have measured dentin thickness and other ...

Atomically precise metal cluster enzymes for pathological tissue regeneration
BMEMat, EarlyView.Schematic illustration of atomically precise metal cluster enzymes (MCEs) for pathological tissue regeneration. Atomically precise MCEs can modulate biological processes, such as attenuation of inflammatory responses, eradication of bacterial pathogens, regulation of angiogenesis, and promotion of cell development.

Harnessing blood clot as a native scaffold for orchestrating tissue repairs and regeneration
BMEMat, EarlyView.The blood clot, owing to its dynamic composition and unique microenvironment, holds significant yet underappreciated potential for tissue engineering. This review systematically summarizes the pathophysiology of clot formation, the key regulatory factors shaping its microenvironment, and its applications in both pre‐clinical and clinical settings ...

The Histochemical Distribution of MMP-2 in the Coronal Dentin of Exfoliated Human Upper Deciduous Teeth [PDF]
The Egyptian Journal of HistologyIntroduction: Matrix Metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) is an enzyme synthesized by odontoblast and acts as a proteolytic enzyme capable of digesting extracellular matrix protein gelatin/collagen of dentin and is involved in the pathogenesis of dental caries ...

Phosphorylation regulates the secondary structure and function of dentin phosphoprotein peptides [PDF]
Bone, 2017 Dentin phosphoprotein (DPP) is the most acidic protein in vertebrates and structurally is classified as an intrinsically disordered protein. Functionally, DPP is related to dentin and bone formation, however the specifics of such association remain unknown. Here, we used atomistic molecular dynamics simulations to screen selected binding domains of DPP

Ultrastructure of Dentin Matrix in Heritable Dentin Defects [PDF]
, 1994 Heritable dentin defects form a group of diseases which exclusively affect dentin among the various dental tissues. While one type is associated with the generalized connective tissue disorder, osteogenesis imperfecta, other types occur as single traits.

Abundance of MMPs and cysteine cathepsins in caries-affected dentin [PDF]
, 2020 Degradation of dentin matrix components within caries dentin has been correlated with the activity of host-derived proteases, such as matrix metalloproteases (MMPs) and cysteine cathepsins (CTs). Since this relationship has not been fully established, we
