Bidlack 1,2,* 1 The Forsyth Institute, Cambridge, MA 02142, USA 2 Department of Developmental Biology, Harvard School of Dental Medicine, Boston, MA 02115, USA * Correspondence: [email protected] (A.G.-B.); [email protected] (F.B.B.) Received: 26 May 2020; Accepted: 20 June 2020; Published: 23 June 2020 Abstract: Tooth enamel is the outer covering of tooth crowns, the hardest material in the mammalian body, yet fracture resistant. The extremely high content of 95 wt% calcium phosphate in healthy adult teeth is achieved through mineralization of a proteinaceous matrix that changes in abundance and composition. Enamel-specific proteins and proteases are known to be critical for proper enamel formation. Recent proteomics analyses revealed many other proteins with their roles in enamel formation yet to be unraveled. Although the exact protein composition of healthy tooth enamel is still unknown, it is apparent that compromised enamel deviates in amount and composition of its organic material. Why these differences affect both the mineralization process before tooth eruption and the properties of erupted teeth will become apparent as proteomics protocols are adjusted to the variability between species, tooth size, sample size and ephemeral organic content of forming teeth. This review summarizes the current knowledge and published proteomics data of healthy and diseased tooth enamel, including advancements in forensic applications and disease models in animals. A summary and discussion of the status quo highlights how recent proteomics findings advance our understating of the complexity and temporal changes of extracellular matrix composition during tooth enamel formation.

  • Amelogenic Transcriptome Profiling in Ameloblast-Like Cells Derived From
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Amelogenic transcriptome profling in ameloblast-like cells derived from adult gingival epithelial cells Received: 23 May 2018 Sun-Yi Hyun1, Seyoung Mun1,2, Kyung-Jung Kang1, Jong-Chan Lim1, Shin-Young Kim1, Accepted: 29 January 2019 Kyudong Han1,2 & Young-Joo Jang 1 Published: xx xx xxxx Dental enamel is the highly mineralized tissue covering the tooth surface and is formed by ameloblasts. Ameloblasts have been known to be impossible to detect in adult tooth because they are shed by apoptosis during enamel maturation and tooth eruption. Owing to these, little was known about appropriate cell surface markers to isolate ameloblast-like cells in tissues. To overcome these problems, epithelial cells were selectively cultivated from the gingival tissues and used as a stem cell source for ameloblastic diferentiation. When gingival epithelial cells were treated with a specifed concentration of BMP2, BMP4, and TGFβ-1, the expression of ameloblast-specifc markers was increased, and both the MAPK and Smad signaling pathways were activated. Gingival epithelial cells diferentiated into ameloblast-like cells through epithelial-mesenchymal transition. By RNA-Seq analysis, we reported 20 ameloblast-specifc genes associated with cell surface, cell adhesion, and extracellular matrix function. These cell surface markers might be useful for the detection and isolation of ameloblast-like cells from dental tissues. Dentin, dental pulp, periodontal ligament, and dental enamel are developed by reciprocal interactions between dental epithelium and ectomesenchyme. Neural crest cell-derived ectomesenchyme diferentiates into odonto- blasts, periodontal ligament progenitors, cementoblasts, as well as various fibroblasts. On the other hand, enamel-forming ameloblasts diferentiate from epithelial cells originating from oral ectoderm.

  • The Role of Transforming Growth Factor Beta in Tertiary Dentinogenesis
    The role of transforming growth factor beta in tertiary dentinogenesis Tetiana Haniastuti1, Phides Nunez2, and Ariadna A. Djais3 1Department of Oral Biology, Gadjah Mada University, Indonesia 2Division of Oral Ecology in Health and Infection, Niigata University, Japan 3Department of Oral Biology, University of Indonesia, Indonesia ABSTRACT The most visible repair response to pulp injury is the deposition of a tertiary dentin matrix over the dentinal tubules of the primary or secondary dentin. Tertiary dentin is distinguished as reactionary and reparative dentin, depending on the severity of the initiating response and the conditions under which the newly deposited dentin matrix was elaborated. Transforming growth factor beta (TGF-b) superfamily is a large group of growth factors that serve important roles in regulating cell growth, differentiation, and function. Members of this superfamily have been implicated in the repair process of the dental tissue after injury. Although numerous studies have proved that those bioactive molecules carry out an important role in the formation of tertiary dentin, comprehensive report regarding that phenomenon is not yet available. This review article aimed to summarize the role of TGF-b on tertiary dentinogenesis during the progression of a carious lesion.

  • Oral Histology
    Oral Histology Lec-6 Dr. Nada AL.Ghaban Amelogenesis (Enamel formation) Amelogenesis begins at cusp tips and the incisal edges of the E.organ of the tooth germ and then it separated down the cusp slopes until all the cells of inner enamel epithelium(IEE) differentiate into ameloblasts. Amelogenesis begins shortly after dentinogenesis at the advanced or late bell stage. The delicate basement membrane between IEE and odontoblasts will disintegrate after dentinogenesis and before amelogenesis. During the early stages of tooth development, the IEE cells proliferate and contribute to the growth of the developing tooth. Ameloblasts fully differentiate at the growth centers located at cusp tips of the forming crown and this differentiation pattern spreads towards the cervical loop (the future cervical line in a fully formed tooth). However, once the IEE has fully differentiated into ameloblasts there is no more proliferation as these highly differentiated cells do not divide again. Amelogenesis is a complex process, it involves 2 stages which are: 1- E. matrix deposition. 2- Maturation or mineralization of the E. matrix. E. matrix deposition: It means the secretion of the E. matrix by ameloblasts. The freshly secreted E. matrix contain 30% minerals as hydroxy apatite crystals and 70% waters and E. proteins which include 90% amelogenine protein and 10% non-amelogenins protein( enameline and ameloblastin). These E. proteins which are secreted by ameloblasts are responsible for creating and 1 maintaining an extracellular environment favorable to mineral deposition. When the first layer of E. is laid down, the ameloblasts will begins to retreat from DEJ towards E. surface and begins to secrete the next layer of E.

  • Role of Connexin 43 in Odontoblastic Differentiation and Structural Maintenance in Pulp Damage Repair
    International Journal of Oral Science www.nature.com/ijos ARTICLE OPEN Role of connexin 43 in odontoblastic differentiation and structural maintenance in pulp damage repair Jiaxin Yin1,2, Jue Xu3, Ran Cheng1, Meiying Shao3, Yuandong Qin1, Hui Yang1 and Tao Hu1 Dental pulp can initiate its damage repair after an injury of the pulp–dentin complex by rearrangement of odontoblasts and formation of newly differentiated odontoblast-like cells. Connexin 43 (Cx43) is one of the gap junction proteins that participates in multiple tissue repair processes. However, the role of Cx43 in the repair of the dental pulp remains unclear. This study aimed to determine the function of Cx43 in the odontoblast arrangement patterns and odontoblastic differentiation. Human teeth for in vitro experiments were acquired, and a pulp injury model in Sprague-Dawley rats was used for in vivo analysis. The odontoblast arrangement pattern and the expression of Cx43 and dentin sialophosphoprotein (DSPP) were assessed. To investigate the function of Cx43 in odontoblastic differentiation, we overexpressed or inhibited Cx43. The results indicated that polarized odontoblasts were arranged along the pulp–dentin interface and had high levels of Cx43 expression in the healthy teeth; however, the odontoblast arrangement pattern was slightly changed concomitant to an increase in the Cx43 expression in the carious teeth. Regularly arranged odontoblast-like cells had high levels of the Cx43 expression during the formation of mature dentin, but the odontoblast- like cells were not regularly arranged beneath immature osteodentin in the pulp injury models. Subsequent in vitro experiments demonstrated that Cx43 is upregulated during odontoblastic differentiation of the dental pulp cells, and inhibition or overexpression of Cx43 influence the odontoblastic differentiation.
