Abstract Aim This study examined the impact of direct current electric fields (DCEFs) on the biological properties of stem cells derived from the apical papilla (SCAP) and further elucidated the underlying mechanisms involved in odontogenic differentiation induced by DCEFs stimulation.

OPTN interacts with NRF2 to facilitate the AKT/DRP1‐mediated regulation of mitochondrial fission in the cytoplasm of SCAPs, promoting tooth root mineralisation. Additionally, OPTN maintains NRF2's nuclear translocation, enhancing the transcriptional regulation of downstream BCL2, ultimately leading to the inhibition apoptosis in SCAPs and regulate ...

Structural Variants in COL1A1 and COL1A2 in Osteogenesis Imperfecta
ABSTRACT Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI) is a heterogeneous skeletal dysplasia characterized by bone fragility, skeletal deformities, and short stature. Most commonly, it is caused by autosomal dominant variants in the type I collagen genes, COL1A1 or COL1A2.

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.

Dental management of a child with a rare bone disorder: a case report with a six-year follow up
Osteogenesis imperfecta is a rare genetic disorder involving abnormal type I collagen composition that compromises bone and collagen-rich tissues. Individuals with Osteogenesis imperfecta exhibit oral and systemic abnormalities, including dentinogenesis ...

Haploinsufficiency of Dspp Gene Causes Dentin Dysplasia Type II in Mice
Dentin dysplasia (DD) and dentinogenesis imperfecta (DGI) patients have abnormal structure, morphology, and function of dentin. DD-II, DGI-II, and DGI-III are caused by heterozygous mutations in the dentin sialophosphoprotein (DSPP) gene in humans ...
