Abstract The pygmy sperm whale (Kogia breviceps) possesses an exocrine gland associated with its false gill slit pigmentation pattern. The cervical gill slit gland is a compound tubuloalveolar gland that produces a holocrine secretion and displays maturational changes in size and secretory histology. While the morphology of the cervical gill slit gland

C-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway activation is essential for dental papilla cells polarization.
During tooth development, dental papilla cells differentiate into odontoblasts with polarized morphology and cell function. Our previous study indicated that the C-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway regulates human dental papilla cell adhesion ...

Abstract Background To understand cellular morphology, biologists have relied on traditional optical microscopy of tissues combined with tissue clearing protocols to image structures deep within tissues. Unfortunately, these protocols often struggle to retain cell boundary markers, especially at high enough resolutions necessary for precise cell ...

Fusion of a primary mandibular lateral incisor and canine: A rarity
Fusion is a developmental anomaly of dental hard tissues characterized by the union of two adjacent teeth. It may be complete with the formation of an abnormally large tooth or incomplete with the union of crowns or roots only.

Kdf1 Regulates Molar Cusp Morphogenesis via the PI3K/AKT/mTOR Signalling Axis
Epithelial Kdf1 knockout disrupts molar cusp morphogenesis by promoting inner enamel epithelium proliferation and invagination via PI3K/AKT/mTOR signalling. ABSTRACT Keratinocyte differentiation factor 1 (Kdf1) reportedly plays a significant role in enamel formation.

ABSTRACT Objective This retrospective cohort study aimed to analyze the occurrence of sequelae in permanent teeth resulting from traumatic injuries to primary dentition among children treated over a 14‐year period at a specialized Dental Trauma Center. Methods Data from 140 children with complete records on trauma and sequelae were evaluated.

Bioengineering of a human whole tooth: progress and challenge
A major challenge in stem cell-based bioengineering of an implantable human tooth is to identify appropriate sources of postnatal stem cells that are odontogenic competent as the epithelial component due to the lack of enamel epithelial cells in adult ...

ABSTRACT Background Luxation injuries to the predecessors can cause sequelae in the permanent successors. Aim To describe and analyze sequelae in permanent successors according to the child's age at the time of different luxation traumas (concussion, subluxation, extrusion, lateral luxation, intrusion and avulsion) in the primary dentition compared ...

Over the past 40 years, studies on tooth regeneration have been conducted. These studies comprised two main flows: some focused on epithelial–mesenchymal interaction in the odontogenic region, whereas others focused on creating a supernumerary tooth in ...

ABSTRACT Background The relationship between primary teeth and their successors involves complex interactions that may influence the development of permanent teeth. Aim To evaluate alterations in permanent premolars after endodontic treatment of their primary molar predecessors. Design A prospective study was conducted with children initially aged 5 to
