    Seikou Shintani
    Department of Pediatric Dentistry, Tokyo Dental College, 1 2 2 Masago, Mihama ku, Chiba 261 8502, Japan
    Gene 424:11-7. 2008
    ..Furthermore, analysis of the sequences suggested that the IBSP molecule might have gradually intensified its functions related to calcification during its evolutionary process through tetrapods...
  2. ncbi Identification and characterization of matrix metalloproteinase-20 (MMP20; enamelysin) genes in reptile and amphibian
    Seikou Shintani
    Department of Pediatric Dentistry, Osaka University Graduate School of Dentistry, 1 8 Yamadaoka, Suita, Osaka 565 0871, Japan
    Gene 392:89-97. 2007
    ..These results suggest that MMP20 in a common ancestor of tetrapods might have been recruited for the processing of AMEL and conserved over 350 million years of evolution...

    Seikou Shintani
    Department of Pediatric Dentistry, Osaka University Graduate School of Dentistry, 1 8 Yamadaoka, Suita, Osaka 565 0871, Japan
    Gene 318:125-36. 2003
    ..As for exon 7, it was absent in both toad genes. Moreover, the AMBN genes were transcribed only in the upper jaw, presumably in teeth. These results may provide useful information for investigation of the evolution of enamel...

    Department of Pediatric Dentistry, Osaka University Graduate School of Dentistry, 1 8 Yamadaoka, Suita, Osaka 565 0871, Japan
    J Exp Zool B Mol Dev Evol 306:126-33. 2006
    ..The principal molecules that provide the adhesive function are presumably C-terminal peptides...

    Takashi Sawada
    Department of Ultrastructural Science, Tokyo Dental College, Masago, Mihama ku, Chiba, Japan
    Acta Histochem 113:542-6. 2011
    ..No enamel-like structure, however, was observed in the cusp of the crown. These results suggest that enamelin acts as an adhesion molecule and is involved in ameloblast cell differentiation during the early stages of tooth development...

    Kiyoko Tamura
    Department of Pediatric Dentistry, Osaka University Graduate School of Dentistry, 1-8 Yamada-oka, Suita, Osaka 565-0871, Japan
    Arch Oral Biol 51:371-7. 2006
    ..CONCLUSIONS: Our results indicate a correlation between the presence of periodontal bacteria in children and their mothers, while the presence of red complex bacteria in children was highly associated with that in their mothers...

    J Biol Chem 285:22666-75. 2010
    ..This intracellular behavior of GAS is unique and distinct from that of other types of bacterial invaders. Our results provide a new picture of GAS infection and host-cell responses in epithelial cells...
