Relationship of vitamin D with calbindin D9k and D28k expression in ameloblastsTomoyuki Onishi
Department of Pediatric Dentistry, Osaka University Graduate School of Dentistry, 1 8 Yamadaoka, Suita, Osaka 565 0871, Japan
Arch Oral Biol 53:117-23. 2008..In the present study, we evaluated the effects of vitamin D on the expressions of CB9k and CB28k during amelogenesis...
Identification and characterization of ameloblastin gene in a reptileSeikou Shintani
Department of Pedodontics, Osaka University Graduate School of Dentistry, 1 8 Yamadaoka, Suita, 565 0871, Osaka, Japan
Gene 283:245-54. 2002..The caiman AMBN gene is a single-copy gene, transcribed only in the jaws, presumably in teeth...
Identification and characterization of matrix metalloproteinase-20 (MMP20; enamelysin) genes in reptile and amphibianSeikou 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...
Intentional replantation of an immature permanent lower incisor because of a refractory peri-apical lesion: case report and 5-year follow-upS Shintani
Department of Pediatric Dentistry, Osaka University Graduate School of Dentistry, Osaka, Japan
Int J Paediatr Dent 14:218-22. 2004..Our results indicate that intentional replantation is a useful method for an immature tooth with refractory peri-apical problems...
Identification and characterization of ameloblastin gene in an amphibian, Xenopus laevisSeikou 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...
Identification and characterization of integrin-binding sialoprotein (IBSP) genes in reptile and amphibianSeikou 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...
Expression of ameloblastin during enamel formation in a crocodileSeikou Shintani
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...
Streptococcus sanguinis induces foam cell formation and cell death of macrophages in association with production of reactive oxygen speciesNobuo Okahashi
Department of Oral Frontier Biology, Osaka University Graduate School of Dentistry, Suita Osaka, Japan
FEMS Microbiol Lett 323:164-70. 2011..Furthermore, S. sanguinis-induced cell death appeared to be independent of activation of inflammasomes, because cleavage of procaspase-1 was not evident in infected macrophages...
Effect of single-dose amoxicillin on rat incisor odontogenesis: a morphological studyKaido Kumazawa
Department of Pediatric Dentistry, Tokyo Dental College, Masago 1 2 2, Mihama ku, Chiba 261 8502, Japan
Clin Oral Investig 16:835-42. 2012..The present results further our understanding of the clinical association between dentin abnormality and amoxicillin exposure during tooth development...
Distribution of 10 periodontal bacteria in saliva samples from Japanese children and their mothersKiyoko 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...
Specific behavior of intracellular Streptococcus pyogenes that has undergone autophagic degradation is associated with bacterial streptolysin O and host small G proteins Rab5 and Rab7Atsuo Sakurai
Department of Pediatric Dentistry, Tokyo Dental College, 1 2 2 Masago, Mihama ku, Chiba 261 8502, Japan
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...
Mhc class I genes of the cichlid fish Oreochromis niloticusAkie Sato
Tsurumi University School of Dental Medicine, 2 1 3 Tsurumi, Yokohama 230 8501, Japan
