Distribution and organization of odontoblast processes in human dentin.
The distribution and organization of odontoblast processes in young human dentin was examined with a scanning electron microscope. By applying the HCl-collagenase method, the extracellular matrix of dentin was almost completely removed, thereby exposing the odontoblast processes and their branches to direct observation. The odontoblast processes are located close to the dentinoenamel junction. ...
متن کاملRequirement of Smad4-mediated signaling in odontoblast differentiation and dentin matrix formation
Dentin is the major part of tooth and formed by odontoblasts. Under the influence of the inner enamel epithelium, odontoblasts differentiate from ectomesenchymal cells of the dental papilla and secrete pre-dentin which then undergo mineralization into dentin. Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β)/bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling is essential for dentinogenesis; however, the precise ...
متن کاملCell autonomous requirement for TGF-β signaling during odontoblast differentiation and dentin matrix formation
TGF-beta subtypes are expressed in tissues derived from cranial neural crest cells during early mouse craniofacial development. TGF-beta signaling is critical for mediating epithelial-mesenchymal interactions, including those vital for tooth morphogenesis. However, it remains unclear how TGF-beta signaling contributes to the terminal differentiation of odontoblast and dentin formation during to...
متن کاملOdontoblast-like differentiation and mineral formation of pulpsphere derived cells on human root canal dentin in vitro
BACKGROUND The revitalization or regeneration of the dental pulp is a preferable goal in current endodontic research. In this study, human dental pulp cell (DPC) spheres were applied to human root canal samples to evaluate their potential adoption for physiological tissue-like regeneration of the dental root canal by odontoblastic differentiation as well as cell-induced mineral formation. MET...
متن کاملRho-kinase phosphorylates PAR-3 and disrupts PAR complex formation.
A polarity complex of PAR-3, PAR-6, and atypical protein kinase C (aPKC) functions in various cell polarization events. PAR-3 directly interacts with Tiam1/Taim2 (STEF), Rac1-specific guanine nucleotide exchange factors, and forms a complex with aPKC-PAR-6-Cdc42*GTP, leading to Rac1 activation. RhoA antagonizes Rac1 in certain types of cells. However, the relationship between RhoA and the PAR c...
