Abstract
Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are a class of molecular chaperones with expression increased in response to heat or other stresses. HSPs regulate cell homeostasis by modulating the folding and maturation of intracellular proteins. Tooth development is a complex process that involves many cell activities. During tooth preparation or trauma, teeth can be damaged. The damaged teeth start their repair process by remineralizing and regenerating tissue. During tooth development and injury repair, different HSPs have different expression patterns and play a special role in odontoblast differentiation and ameloblast secretion by mediating signaling pathways or participating in protein transport. This review explores the expression patterns and potential mechanisms of HSPs, particularly HSP25, HSP60 and HSP70, in tooth development and injury repair.

Analysis of expression patterns of IGF-1, caspase-3 and HSP-70 in developing human tooth germs. Arch Oral Biol 2015; 60:1533-44. [PMID: 26276267 DOI: 10.1016/j.archoralbio.2015.07.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/19/2015] [Revised: 06/26/2015] [Accepted: 07/06/2015] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
AIMS To analyze expression patterns of IGF-1, caspase-3 and HSP-70 in human incisor and canine tooth germs during the late bud, cap and bell stages of odontogenesis. MATERIALS AND METHODS Head areas or parts of jaw containing teeth from 10 human fetuses aged between 9th and 20th developmental weeks were immunohistochemically analyzed using IGF-1, active caspase-3 and HSP-70 markers. Semi-quantitative analysis of each marker's expression pattern was also performed. RESULTS During the analyzed period, IGF-1 and HSP-70 were mostly expressed in enamel organ. As development progressed, expression of IGF-1 and HSP-70 became more confined to differentiating tissues in the future cusp tip area, as well as in highly proliferating cervical loops. Few apoptotic bodies highly positive to active caspase-3 were observed in enamel organ and dental papilla from the cap stage onward. However, both enamel epithelia moderately expressed active caspase-3 throughout the investigated period. CONCLUSIONS Expression patterns of IGF-1, active caspase-3 and HSP-70 imply importance of these factors for early human tooth development. IGF-1 and HSP-70 have versatile functions in control of proliferation, differentiation and anti-apoptotic protection of epithelial parts of human enamel organ. Active caspase-3 is partially involved in formation and apoptotic removal of primary enamel knot, although present findings might reflect its ability to perform other non-death functions such as differentiation of hard dental tissues secreting cells and guidance of ingrowth of proliferating cervical loops.

Abstract
The expression of small heat shock proteins is tightly regulated during development in multiple organisms. As housekeeping proteins, small heat shock proteins help protect cells from apoptosis, stabilize the cytoskeleton and contribute to proteostasis. Consistently, depletion of one small heat shock protein is usually not detrimental due to a certain level of redundancy between the functions of each small heat shock protein. However, while their stress-induced expression is regulated by heat shock factors, their constitutive expression is under the control of other specific transcription factors, suggesting the existence of very specialized functions. This review focuses on the expression patterns and functions of small heat shock proteins in various organisms during development. This article is part of a Directed Issue entitled: Small HSPs in physiology and pathology.

Abstract
Postnatal mesenchymal stem/stromal-like cells (MSCs) including periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs), dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs), and bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) are capable of self-renewal and differentiation into multiple mesenchymal cell lineages. Despite their similar expression of MSC-associated and osteoblastic markers, MSCs retain the capacity to generate structures resembling the microenvironments from which they are derived in vivo and represent a promising therapy for the regeneration of complex tissues in the clinical setting. With this in mind, systematic approaches are required to identify the differential protein expression patterns responsible for lineage commitment and mediating the formation of these complex structures. This is the first study to compare the differential proteomic expression profiles of ex vivo-expanded ovine PDLSCs, DPSCs, and BMSCs derived from an individual donor. The two-dimensional electrophoresis was performed and regulated proteins were identified by liquid chromatography--electrospray-ionization tandem mass spectrometry (MS and MS/MS), database searching, and de novo sequencing. In total, 58 proteins were differentially expressed between at least 2 MSC populations in both sheep, 12 of which were up-regulated in one MSC population relative to the other two. In addition, the regulation of selected proteins was also conserved between equivalent human MSC populations. We anticipate that differential protein expression profiling will provide a basis for elucidating the protein expression patterns and molecular cues that are crucial in specifying the characteristic growth and developmental capacity of dental and non-dental tissue-derived MSC populations. These expression patterns can serve as important tools for the regeneration of particular tissues in future stem cell-based tissue engineering studies using animal models.

Abstract
It has been suggested that heat-shock proteins (HSPs) might be involved in autoimmune disease mechanisms in humans, considering the high degree of sequence homology between bacterial and human HSPs. Several authors have postulated that HSPs might be involved in periodontal disease processes, but not specifically in peri-implantitis. Consequently, using immunohistochemical techniques, we studied the distribution of HSP25, HSP32, HSP60 and HSP72 in three groups of patients: (1) subjects with natural teeth (healthy periodontal tissue), (2) subjects with normal peri-implant mucosa and (3) subjects with clinically evident peri-implantitis. The immunolabelling for HSP25 and HSP60 was increased in the peri-implantitis group HSP32 immunolabelling slightly decreased in peri-implant and peri-implantitis gingiva. Labelling for HSP72 was undetectable in all three groups. In conclusion, we observed in peri-implantitis a clearly enhanced immunolabelling of two specific HSPs, HSP25 and HSP60, restricted to gingival epithelium and this could indicate a signal of local altered homeostasis.

Abstract
Odontoblast- and ameloblast-lineage cells acquire heat-shock protein (HSP)-25 immunoreactivity after they complete cell division during postnatal odontogenesis in rat molars. However, there are no data available concerning the relationship between the termination of cell proliferation and HSP-25 immunoreactivity during tooth morphogenesis. We compared the expression of HSP-25 in tooth germs with their proliferative activity in the rat prenatal to perinatal molar and postnatal incisor to clarify the functional significance of HSP-25 during tooth morphogenesis by immunohistochemistry using anti-HSP-25 and anti-Ki67/5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU). Numerous proliferating cells in developing molars were distributed throughout the tooth germ and HSP-25 immunoreactivity was recognizable in the dental epithelial and mesenchymal cells after they completed cell division. However, both cell proliferation and immunoreaction for HSP-25 are absent in the enamel knots. The distribution pattern of the proliferating cells in the incisors was basically identical to that in the prenatal molars except for the lack of non-proliferating secondary enamel knots and the sparse distribution of proliferating cells in the apical bud. Thus, HSP-25 protein is suggested to act as a switch between cell proliferation and terminal cyto-differentiation during odontogenesis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study is to clarify the functional significance of heat-shock protein (HSP)-25 during tooth development. DESIGN We compared the expression of HSP-25 in the dental epithelial and mesenchymal cells with their proliferative activity during odontogenesis in rat molars on postnatal days 1-100 by immunohistochemistry using anti-HSP-25 and anti-5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU) for cell proliferation assay. RESULTS On day 1, BrdU-immunoreactive cells were densely located in the inner enamel epithelium in the cervical loop and intercusped areas and the dental pulp adjacent to them, whereas HSP-25-immunoractivity (IR) was restricted to the cusped area where odontoblasts and ameloblasts had already differentiated. Subsequently, BrdU-IR shifted in the apical direction to be localized around Hertwig's epithelial root sheath during days 5-30, never overlapping with concomitantly apically-shifted HSP-25-IR. On days 60-100, BrdU-immunoreactive cells were hardly recognizable in the dental pulp, where HSP-25-IR was exclusively localized in the odontoblast layer. Furthermore, the odontoblast- and ameloblast-lineage cells exhibited two steps in the expression of HSP-25 throughout the postnatal stages: first, dental epithelial and pulpal mesenchymal cells showed a weak IR for HSP-25 after the cessation of their proliferative activity, and subsequently odontoblasts and ameloblasts consistently expressed an intense HSP-25-IR. CONCLUSION Odontoblast- and ameloblast-lineage cells acquire HSP-25-IR after they complete their cell division, suggesting that this protein acts as a switch between cell proliferation and differentiation during tooth development. The consistent expression of HSP-25-IR in the formative cells may be involved in the maintenance of their functional integrity.

Abstract
27 kDa Heat shock protein (Hsp27), which is also identified as p29 estrogen-receptor associated protein, plays a crucial role in specific growth stages. It also seems to be involved in the balance between differentiation and apoptosis. To determine whether Hsp27 is involved during craniofacial development and odontogenesis, its expression was studied through immunohistochemistry of developing jaw bone as well as the odontogenesis of heads from human fetuses. Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded specimens of 7 human fetuses (3 female, 4 male), obtained from miscarriages occurring between the 9th and 16th weeks of pregnancy, were examined by using a monoclonal antibody against Hsp27. Staining intensity (weak, +; moderate, ++; strong, +++) was evaluated semiquantitatively. The sample slice was cut through a coronal plane, which included eyes, nasal cavities, tongue, and primitive dental lamina with tooth germs. A transient and spatially restricted expression of Hsp27 in developing human jaw bones and teeth was observed. Osteoblasts around the uncalcified bone matrix showed Hsp27 immunoreaction products (+++), whereas osteocytes were not immunolabeled. In mandibular condyle, immunolabeling was restricted to hypertrophic chondrocytes (++). In developing tooth germs, Hsp27 immunostaining was detected throughout the bud (+++). At the early cap stage, a strong immunolabeling for Hsp27 was seen in the dental lamina (+++), and a moderate staining was seen in the outer dental epithelium (++). At the late cap stage, Hsp27 expression was detected in the outer dental epithelium (++) as well as in the cells of the future stellate reticulum (++). The spatiotemporal-restricted expression of Hsp27 in craniofacial bones during development suggests that this protein could be involved in the balance between differentiation and apoptosis, by modulating the viability of osteoblasts and chondrocytes. The specific regional and temporal expression patterns of Hsp27 during tooth development sustains that this small Hsp might be related to the morphogenesis and cytodifferentiation processes of tooth germs.

Abstract
Certain amino acid transport systems play an important role in supplying organic nutrients to each cell and for cell proliferation during tooth development. However, the mechanisms responsible for such actions are unclear. This study demonstrated for the first time that LAT1 and 4F2hc are expressed during tooth development in prenatal and postnatal rats, and that the transporters show cell-specific expression in ameloblasts, which are the epithelium-derived dental cells. LAT1 and 4F2hc expression was not observed in other dental cells of the developing teeth such as odontoblasts and cementoblasts. Overall, these results suggest that LAT1 and 4F2hc might play an important role in enamel formation.
