The formation of dentin, dentinogenesis, comprises a sophisticated interplay between
several factors in the tissue, cellular as well as extracellular. Dentin may be regarded as a …

Bone cells compose a population of cells of heterogeneous origin but restricted function with
respect to matrix formation, mineralization, and resorption. The local, mesenchymal origin of …

Dentin may be regarded as a mineralized connective tissue. In its composition as well as its
mode of formation, dentin exhibits several similarities with bone, but also definite …

We isolated a sialic-rich protein from rat dentin extracts and have named it dentin
sialoprotein, DSP (formerly called 95K glycoprotein). DSP is rich in aspartic acid, glutamic …

Preferential preservation of noncollagenous proteins (NCP) in diagenetically altered bone
will affect amino acid compositions, inflate DL aspartic acid ratios, and increase CN ratios …

In the accompanying study, we report an in vitro culture system from bovine bone cells that
can be applied to investigate bone cell growth and differentiation. In this system, bovine …

A non-collagenous protein, extracted from rat incisor dentin, is a dentin sialoprotein (DSP).
We examined immunohistochemically the developmental appearance and tissue …

Bone γ‐carboxyglutamic acid (Gla)‐containing protein (BGP or osteocalcin) and 44 kDa
bone phosphoprotein (44K BPP, also called Sialoprotein I or osteopontin) have been …

Odontoblast cell bOdies constitute a homogeneous layer at the periphery of the pulp.
Processes emerge from these cell bodies and extend throughout the predentine and the …
