Potassium Currents Activated by Depolarization in Odontoblasts
Increased intracellular free Ca2+ concentrations elicit plasma membrane depolarization, which leads to the activation of K+ currents. However, the precise properties of K+ currents activated by depolarization in odontoblasts remain to be elucidated.

Dentinogenesis and Dentin Sialophosphoprotein (DSPP) [PDF]
Dentin sialophosphoprotein (DSPP) is critical for proper mineralization of tooth dentin, and understanding its structure and function should yield important insights into how dentin biomineralization is controlled. During the recent six years, I have focused on characterizing DSPP-derived proteins isolated from developing porcine teeth. Porcine DSPP is

Biomimetic Polymer Film with Brilliant Brightness Using a One‐Step Water Vapor–Induced Phase Separation Method [PDF]
The scales of the white Cyphochilus beetles are endowed with unusual whiteness arising from the exceptional scattering efficiency of their disordered ultrastructure optimized through millions of years of evolution.

Malignant lymphoma during childhood and adolescence.Implications for oral health in longterm survivors [PDF]
Malignant lymphomas are among the most common types of cancer in children and adolecents. Recent advances in the treatment of these malignancies in children have resulted in more lomg term survivors (LTSs) of these types of cancer. This has also resulted

Vitamin D: pharmacology and clinical challenges in oral health care [PDF]
Vitamin D is a hormone, produced endogenously through cutaneous transformation of 7-dehydrocholesterol by UVB-irradiation with skeletal and non-skeletal functions and could be involved in oral health conditions especially periodontitis.
