Langerhans cells in odontogenic epithelia of odontogenic fibromas

Journal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2013
Langerhans cell (LC) is an antigen-presenting cell that is very important for T-cell-mediated immune reactions. Our previous studies have shown the presence of LCs in some odontogenic tumors and cysts. In this study, we further examined the presence of LCs in odontogenic epithelia of 16 odontogenic fibromas (OFs).Anti-CD1a and anti-S-100 immunostains ...

FAM20A Deficiency Drives Transcriptomic Dysregulation and Functional Impairment in Gingival Fibroblasts

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
FAM20A variants cause AI1G, marked by enamel defects, gingival overgrowth and ectopic calcifications. RNA sequencing of patient‐derived gingival fibroblasts showed dysregulated genes in adhesion, proliferation and signalling pathways. Functional assays revealed increased cell proliferation, impaired ECM interactions and osteogenesis, suggesting FAM20A ...

Piezo2 in Mechanosensory Biology: From Physiological Homeostasis to Disease‐Promoting Mechanisms

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Piezo2 channels are essential mechanotransducers regulating touch, proprioception and visceral mechanosensation across physiological systems, emerging as therapeutic targets for pathological mechanical hypersensitivity and neurogenic disorders. ABSTRACT Piezo2, a mechanically activated ion channel, serves as the key molecular transducer for touch ...

p75NTR Promotes Circadian‐Driven Mineralization During Tooth Development via CK2/PER2 Pathway

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
The diagram illustrates how the circadian rhythm regulates the p75NTR‐CK2‐PER2 axis, driving rhythmic biomineralisation during tooth development. ABSTRACT Circadian rhythm is an essential biological process that synchronises physiological activities with environmental light/dark cycles.

From Cells to Animals: Connexin43 Suppression Enhances Autophagic Flux to Restore Odontogenesis in Inflamed Dental Pulp. [PDF]

Int Endod J
ABSTRACT Aim Under certain conditions, infection‐induced inflammation may activate reparative processes to form a hard tissue barrier against microbial invasion. Autophagy participates in odontogenic differentiation during inflammation in vitro, but its role in pulp repair remains unclear.
