Critical roles for WDR72 in calcium transport and matrix protein removal during enamel maturation
Defects in WDR72 (WD repeat-containing protein 72) cause autosomal recessive hypomaturation amelogenesis imperfecta. We generated and characterized Wdr72-knockout/lacZ-knockin mice to investigate the role of WDR72 in enamel formation. In all analyses, enamel formed by Wdr72 heterozygous mice was indistinguishable from wild-type enamel. Without WDR72, enamel mineral density increased early durin...
متن کاملChemical Events during Enamel Maturation
This review focuses on the process of enamel maturation, a series of events associated with slow, progressive growth in the width and thickness of apatitic crystals. This developmental step causes gradual physical hardening and transformation of soft, newly formed enamel into one of the most durable mineralized tissues produced biologically. Enamel is the secretory product of specialized epithe...
متن کاملKallikrein-related peptidase 4, matrix metalloproteinase 20, and the maturation of murine and porcine enamel.
The crowns of matrix metalloproteinase 20 (Mmp20) null mice fracture at the dentino-enamel junction (DEJ), whereas the crowns of kallikrein-related peptidase 4 (Klk4) null mice fracture in the deep enamel just above the DEJ. We used backscatter scanning electron microscopy to assess enamel mineralization in incisors from 9-wk-old wild-type, Klk4 null, and Mmp20 null mice, and in developing pig ...
متن کاملThe Ultrastructure of Ameloblasts during Matrix Formation and the Maturation of Enamel
Ameloblasts from different regions of upper incisors of rats were examined with the electron microscope. During matrix formation, the cells resemble secretory cells. They are extremely long, tightly packed, and show considerable polarity. Nuclei are at the basal end of the cell. Mitochondria are proximal and the Golgi apparatus distal to the nucleus. Ergastoplasm is found in all levels but main...
متن کاملRoot maturation and dentin–pulp response to enamel matrix derivative in pulpotomized permanent teeth
The success of pulpotomy of young permanent teeth depends on the proper selection of dressing materials. This study aimed to evaluate the histological and histomorphometric response of dentin-pulp complex to the enamel matrix derivative (Emdogain(®) gel) compared to that of calcium hydroxide when used as a pulp dressing in immature young permanent dogs' teeth. Dentin-like tissues bridging the f...
