Cutaneous wound healing is a complex process that encompasses alterations in all aspects
of the skin including the extracellular matrix (ECM). ECM consist of large structural proteins …

Extracellular matrix proteins play crucial roles in the formation of mineralized tissues like
bone and teeth via multifunctional mechanisms. In tooth enamel, ameloblastin (Ambn) is one …

Utilization of the body's regenerative potential for tissue repair is known as in situ tissue
regeneration. However, the use of exogenous growth factors requires delicate control of the …

Objectives Regenerating the periodontium poses a critical challenge in oral medicine. To
repair various periodontal defects, it is necessary to adopt a bio-scaffold that provides both …

Introduction The role of osteopontin (OPN) following severe injury remains to be elucidated,
especially its relationship with type I collagen (encoded by the Col1a1 gene) secretion by …

In bony vertebrates, skeletal mineralization relies on the secretory calcium-binding
phosphoproteins (Scpp) family whose members are acidic extracellular proteins …

The enamel matrix protein Ameloblastin (Ambn) has critical physiological functions,
including regulation of mineral formation, cell differentiation, and cell–matrix adhesion. We …

Background Dental implant is the principal treatment for edentulism and the healthiness of
the peri-implant tissue has a pivotal role for its longterm success. In addition, it has been …

This study developed a customized hydrostatic pressure-based loading environment to
investigate the effect of static hydrostatic pressure on the periodontal ligament fibroblasts …

This chapter addresses select pathologies of the oral‐maxillofacial complex that might be
considered 'non‐heritable'; focusing on developmental anomalies and congenital tumours …
