On-demand chlorine dioxide solution enhances odontoblast differentiation through desulfation of cell surface heparan sulfate proteoglycan and subsequent activation of canonical Wnt signaling

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023
Heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) surround the surface of odontoblasts, and their modification affects their affinity for Wnt ligands. This study proposes applying Matching Transformation System® (MA-T), a novel chlorinated oxidant, to enhance ...

Specificity Protein 7 Is Required for Proliferation and Differentiation of Ameloblasts and Odontoblasts

open access: yesJournal of Bone and Mineral Research, 2018
The Sp7/Osterix transcription factor is essential for bone development. Mutations of the Sp7 gene in humans are associated with craniofacial anomalies and osteogenesis imperfecta.

Cell polarization: From epithelial cells to odontoblasts

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Cell Biology, 2018
Cell polarity identifies the asymmetry of a cell. Various types of cells, including odontoblasts and epithelial cells, polarize to fulfil their destined functions.

Odontoblasts in health and disease with an additional note on its three-Dimensional histological perspective

open access: yesJournal of the Scientific Society, 2023
Teeth are considered to be the prime organs for mastication, speech, and esthetics. The basic structure of tooth involves enamel, dentin, and pulp. Each of these is formed by specialized structures during the various phases of tooth development.

Expression and function of dopamine in odontoblasts [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cellular Physiology, 2019
AbstractDopamine (DA) is produced from tyrosine by tyrosine hydroxylase (TH). A recent study has reported that DA promotes the mineralization of murine preosteoblasts. However, the role of DA in odontoblasts has not been examined. Therefore, in this investigation, we researched the expression of TH and DA in odontoblasts and the effects of DA on the ...

Pannexin 3 regulates proliferation and differentiation of odontoblasts via its hemichannel activities

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Highly coordinated regulation of cell proliferation and differentiation contributes to the formation of functionally shaped and sized teeth; however, the mechanism underlying the switch from cell cycle exit to cell differentiation during odontogenesis is

Morphological changes in tissues of unerupted teeth

open access: yesPatologìâ, 2012
Morphological composition of unerupted teeth tissues was studied. The heterogeneous degree of mineralization of dentine and hypoplastic and atrophic changes of odontoblasts were determined in the result of the research.

Morphological changes of tissues in teeth with incomplete formation of the root

open access: yesPatologìâ, 2012
The group of extracted teeth with incomplete formation of roots was morphologically analyzed. The signs of hypoplasia of all tissue components that can cause disorders in the process of eruption of teeth and their retention were revealed in the result.

BMP Signaling Pathway in Dentin Development and Diseases

open access: yesCells, 2022
BMP signaling plays an important role in dentin development. BMPs and antagonists regulate odontoblast differentiation and downstream gene expression via canonical Smad and non-canonical Smad signaling pathways.

Early stages of tooth development in the harbor porpoise Phocoena phocoena

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Here we describe the stages of tooth development in toothed whales on the basis of the harbor porpoise (Phocoena phocoena). The aim of the study was to find out whether these stages are identical to those of other mammals analyzed so far although toothed whales are homodont and monophyodont.
