Aged amelogenin‐null mice developed severe osteoarthritic features. In a rat model of induced osteoarthritis, a single application of a recombinant human amelogenin inhibited joint deterioration and induced partial healing, while increasing type II collagen and decreasing MMP‐13 and type X collagen, 24 weeks posttreatment.

Les phosphoprotéines sécrétées liant le calcium (SCPP) impliquées dans la formation de l'émail dentaire : expression chez le lézard Anolis carolinensis et évolution chez les amniotes [PDF]
Enamel formation requires the involvement of secretory calcium-binding phosphoproteins. Three of them, amelogenin (AMEL), ameloblastin (AMBN) and enamelin (ENAM), have been extensively studied in mammals.

Co-distribution of cysteine cathepsins and matrix metalloproteases in human dentin [PDF]
It has been hypothesized that cysteine cathepsin's (CTs) along with matrix metalloproteases (MMPs) may work in conjunction in the proteolysis of mature dentin matrix.

Parathyroid hormone (PTH)-related protein (PTH-rP) is an important autocrine/paracrine attenuator of programmed cell differentiation whose expression is restricted to the epithelial layer in tooth development. The PTH/PTHrP receptor (PPR) mRNA in contrast is detected in the dental papilla, suggesting that PTHrP and the PPR may modulate epithelial ...

Role of Prion protein-EGFR multimolecular complex during neuronal differentiation of human dental pulp-derived stem cells [PDF]
Cellular prion protein (PrPC) is expressed in a wide variety of stem cells in which regulates their self-renewal as well as differentiation potential. In this study we investigated the presence of PrPCin human dental pulp-derived stem cells (hDPSCs) and ...
