Ameloblastin in Hertwig’s Epithelial Root Sheath Regulates Tooth Root Formation and Development
Tooth root formation begins after the completion of crown morphogenesis. At the end edge of the tooth crown, inner and outer enamel epithelia form Hertwig's epithelial root sheath (HERS). HERS extends along with dental follicular tissue for root formation. Ameloblastin (AMBN) is an enamel matrix protein secreted by ameloblasts and HERS derived cells. A number of enamel proteins are eliminated i...
متن کاملNfic regulates tooth root patterning and growth
Molecular interactions between epithelium and mesenchyme are important for root formation. Nuclear factor I-C (Nfic) has been identified as a key regulator of root formation. However, the mechanisms of root formation and their interactions between Hertwig's epithelial root sheath (HERS) and mesenchyme remain unclear. In this study, we investigated the role of Nfic in root patterning and growth ...
متن کاملHertwig’s epithelial root sheath: A panaromic view
The Hertwig’s epithelial root sheath is a transient structure formed in the early period of root formation. It has an important role in regulation and maintenance of the periodontal ligament space, prevention of root resorption and ankylosis, maintenance of periodontal ligament homeostasis, Induction of acellular cementum formation, as a stem cell in periodontal regeneration and also as a stimu...
متن کاملHuman Hertwig's epithelial root sheath cells play crucial roles in cementum formation.
UNLABELLED Hertwig's epithelial root sheath (HERS) cells are a unique population of epithelial cells in the periodontal ligament compartment. To date, their functional role has not been fully elucidated. Our hypothesis was that HERS cells may be involved in regulating differentiation of periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) and forming cementum in vivo. In this study, we found that HERS cell...
متن کاملSmad4-Shh-Nfic Signaling Cascade–Mediated Epithelial-Mesenchymal Interaction Is Crucial in Regulating Tooth Root Development
Transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta)/bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling is crucial for regulating epithelial-mesenchymal interaction during organogenesis, and the canonical Smad pathway-mediated TGF-beta/BMP signaling plays important roles during development and disease. During tooth development, dental epithelial cells, known as Hertwig's epithelial root sheath (HERS), participat...
