Abstract
OBJECTIVE Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) play pivotal roles in mediating interactions between dental epithelium and mesenchyme throughout tooth initiation and morphogenesis. This study aimed to elucidate the roles of FGF4 and FGF10 in the regulation of tooth development. DESIGN In this study, we investigated spatiotemporal expression patterns of FGF4 and FGF10 in the third deciduous molars (DM3) of miniature pigs at the cap, early bell, and late bell stages. Pregnant miniature pigs were obtained, and the samples were processed for histological staining. Non-radioactive in situ hybridization, immunohistochemistry, and real-time PCR were used to detect mRNA and protein expression levels of FGF4 and FGF10. RESULTS FGF4 was expressed in the dental epithelium and mesenchyme at the cap stage. At the early bell stage, epithelial expression of FGF4 was reduced while mesenchymal expression got stronger. At the late bell stage, the FGF4 expression was restricted to the inner enamel epithelium (IEE) and differentiating odontoblasts. FGF10 was expressed intensely in both epithelium and mesenchyme at the cap stage. The expression of FGF10 was concentrated in the secondary enamel knots and surrounding mesenchyme at the early bell stage. FGF10 was weakly detected in the IEE by the late bell stage. CONCLUSIONS Our results indicated that FGF4 and FGF10 might have partially redundant functions in regulating epithelium morphogenesis. FGF4 may be involved in regulatory signaling cascades mediating interactions between the epithelium and mesenchyme. In addition, the downregulation of FGF10 expression may be associated with the cessation of mesenchymal cell proliferation and initiation of preodontoblast polarization.

Abstract
CPNE1 is a calcium-dependent, phospholipid-binding protein that is ubiquitously expressed in various tissues and organs. This study investigates the expression and localization of CPNE1 in tooth germ development and the role of CPNE1 in odontoblastic differentiation. In rat tooth germs, CPNE1 is expressed in the odontoblasts and ameloblasts since the late bell stage. The depletion of CPNE1 in the stem cells from apical papilla (SCAPs) clearly inhibits the expression of odontoblastic-related genes and the formation of mineralized nodules during differentiation, while CPNE1 overexpression promotes this process. In addition, CPNE1 overexpression increases AKT phosphorylation during the odontoblastic differentiation of SCAPs. Furthermore, treatment with AKT inhibitor (MK2206) reduces the expression of odontoblastic-related genes in CPNE1 over-expressed SCAPs, and Alizarin Red staining shows reduced mineralization. These results suggest that CPNE1 plays a role in the tooth germ development as well as the odontblastic differentiation of SCAPs in vitro that is related to the AKT signaling pathway.

Abstract
Post-operative sensitivity (POS) is the most common clinical dental complaint after tooth preparation and resin-based composite restoration. In our previous study, copine 7 (CPNE7) and CPNE7-derived peptide (CPNE7-DP) induced in vitro odontoblast differentiation and in vivo dentin formation. Here, we incorporated CPNE7-DP into All-Bond Universal (ABU) adhesive, developing ABU/CPNE7-DP. This study aimed to investigate the possibility of reducing POS using ABU/CPNE7-DP. We first determined the stability of CPNE7-DP under low pH. Furthermore, we evaluated its dentinal tubule penetration, in vitro odontogenic differentiation potential, in vivo tertiary dentin formation and its effects on bonding performance. CPNE7-DP was stable at pH 1.2, even lower than ABU's pH of 3.2. ABU/CPNE7-DP can penetrate dentinal tubules, stimulate odontoblast differentiation in vitro and generate tertiary dentin with tubular structure in vivo without interfering with bonding performance. Therefore, ABU/CPNE7-DP may serve as a novel bioactive adhesive for reducing POS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to identify formation of tubular dentin induced by Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) and bone morphogenic protein (BMP) signaling pathway in dental epithelial cells. METHODS We collected conditioned medium (CM) of rTGF-β1/rBMP-2 treated HAT-7 and treated to MDPC-23 cells. The expression levels of odontoblast differentiation markers, KLF4, DMP1, and DSP were evaluated by real-time PCR and western blot analysis. To evaluate whether CM of rTGF-β1/rBMP-2 induces tubular dentin formation, we made a beagle dog tooth defect model. RESULTS Here, we show that Cpne7 is regulated by Smad4-dependent TGF-β1/BMP2 signaling pathway in dental epithelial cells. CM of rTGF-β1/rBMP-2 treated HAT-7, or rCPNE7 raises the expression levels of KLF4, DMP1, and DSP in MDPC-23 cells. When rTGF-β1 or rBMP-2 is directly treated to MDPC-23 cells, however, expression levels of Cpne7-regulated genes remain unchanged. In a beagle dog defect model, application of rTGF-β1/BMP2 treated CM resulted in tubular tertiary dentin mixed with osteodentin at cavity-prepared sites, while rTGF-β1 group exhibited homogenous osteodentin. CONCLUSIONS Taken together, Smad4-dependent TGF-β1/BMP2 signaling regulates Cpne7 in dental epithelial cells, and CPNE7 protein secreted from pre-ameloblasts mediates odontoblast differentiation via epithelial-mesenchymal interaction.

Abstract
Tooth biomineralization is a dynamic and complicated process influenced by local and systemic factors. Abnormal mineralization in teeth occurs when factors related to physiologic mineralization are altered during tooth formation and after tooth maturation, resulting in microscopic and macroscopic manifestations. The present Review provides timely information on the mechanisms and structural alterations of different forms of pathological tooth mineralization. A comprehensive study of these alterations benefits diagnosis and biomimetic treatment of abnormal mineralization in patients.

Abstract
Dentin, which composes most of the tooth structure, is formed by odontoblasts, long-lived post-mitotic cells maintained throughout the entire life of the tooth. In mature odontoblasts, however, cellular activity is significantly weakened. Therefore, it is important to augment the cellular activity of mature odontoblasts to regenerate physiological dentin; however, no molecule regulating the cellular activity of mature odontoblasts has yet been identified. Here, we suggest that copine-7 (CPNE7) can reactivate the lost functions of mature odontoblasts by inducing autophagy. CPNE7 was observed to elevate the expression of microtubule-associated protein light chain 3-II (LC3-II), an autophagy marker, and autophagosome formation in the pre-odontoblast and mature odontoblast stages of human dental pulp cells. CPNE7-induced autophagy upregulated DSP and DMP-1, odontoblast differentiation and mineralization markers, and augmented dentin formation in mature odontoblasts. Furthermore, CPNE7 also upregulated NESTIN and TAU, which are expressed in the physiological odontoblast process, and stimulated the elongation of the odontoblast process by inducing autophagy. Moreover, lipofuscin, which progressively accumulates in long-lived post-mitotic cells and hinders their proper functions, was observed to be removed in recombinant CPNE7-treated mature odontoblasts. Thus, CPNE7-induced autophagy reactivated the function of mature odontoblasts and promoted the formation of physiological dentin in vivo. On the other hand, the well-known autophagy inducer, rapamycin, promoted odontoblast differentiation in pre-odontoblasts but did not properly reactivate the function of mature odontoblasts. These findings provide evidence that CPNE7 functionally reactivates mature odontoblasts and introduce its potential for dentinal loss-targeted clinical applications.

Abstract
Functional peptides derived from the active domains of odontogenesis-related proteins have been reported to promote dental hard tissue regeneration. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of an artificially synthesized peptide, TVH-19, on odontoblast differentiation and tertiary dentin formation in indirect pulp capping (IPC) using in vitro and in vivo experiments. TVH-19 did not exhibit any effect on the proliferation of human dental pulp cells (hDPCs) but significantly promoted cell migration, compared with the control (p < 0.05). TVH-19-treated hDPCs showed significantly higher alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and stronger alizarin red staining (ARS) reactivity than the control group (p < 0.05). TVH-19 also upregulated the mRNA and protein expression levels of odontogenic genes. After generating IPC in rats, the samples of teeth were studied using micro-computed tomography (Micro-CT), hematoxylin & eosin (HE) staining, and immunohistochemical staining to investigate the functions of TVH-19. The in vivo results showed that TVH-19 induced the formation of tertiary dentin, and reduced inflammation and apoptosis, as evident from the downregulated expression of interleukin 6 (IL-6) and cleaved-Caspase-3 (CL-CASP3). Overall, the results of our study suggest that TVH-19 induces differentiation of hDPCs, promotes tertiary dentin formation, relieves inflammation, and reduces apoptosis, indicating the potential applications of TVH-19 in IPC.

Abstract
We aim to examine the effects of a newly developed peptide derived from CPNE7 (Cpne7-DP) in tertiary dentin formation and peritubular space occlusion, and comprehensively evaluate its potential as a bioactive therapeutic agent. Human dental pulp cells (HDPCs) and a mouse pre-odontoblast cell line, MDPC-23, were chosen for in vitro studies to characterize lineage-specific cell responses after Cpne7-DP treatment. Whether Cpne7-DP reproduces the dentin regenerative potential of CPNE7 was tested using a beagle dog model by generating dentinal defects of various degrees in vivo. Peritubular space occlusion was further examined by scanning electron microscopy and microleakage test, while overall mineralization capacity of Cpne7-DP was tested ex vivo. CPNE7 promotes tubular dentin formation under both shallow and deep dentinal defects, and the functional peptide Cpne7-DP induces odontoblast-like differentiation in vitro, mineralization ex vivo, and tubular dentin formation in in vivo beagle dog dentin exposure and pulp exposure models. Moreover, Cpne7-DP leads to peritubular space occlusion and maintains stability under different conditions. We show that CPNE7 and its derivative functional peptide Cpne7-DP promotes dentin regeneration in dentinal defects of various degrees and that the regenerated hard tissue demonstrates the characteristics of true dentin. Limitations of the current dental materials including post-operative hypersensitivity make biological repair of dentin a field of growing interest. Here, we suggest that the dual functions of Cpne7-DP in tubular dentin formation and peritubular space occlusion are promising for the treatment of dentinal loss and sensitivity.

Abstract
Autophagy is an intracellular self-degradation process that is essential for tissue development, cell differentiation, and survival. Nevertheless, the role of autophagy in tooth development has not been definitively identified. The goal of this study was to investigate how autophagy is involved in midkine (MK)-mediated odontoblast-like differentiation, mineralization, and tertiary dentin formation in a mouse tooth pulp exposure model. In vitro studies show that MK and LC3 have similar expression patterns during odontoblast-like cell differentiation. Odontoblast-like cell differentiation is promoted through MK-mediated autophagy, which leads to increased mineralized nodule formation. Subcutaneous transplantation of hydroxyapatite/tricalcium phosphate with rMK-treated human dental pulp cells led to dentin pulp-like tissue formation through MK-mediated autophagy. Furthermore, MK-mediated autophagy induces differentiation of dental pulp cells into odontoblast-like cells that form DSP-positive tertiary dentin in vivo. Our findings may provide 1) novel insight into the role of MK in regulating odontoblast-like differentiation and dentin formation in particular via autophagy and 2) potential application of MK in vital pulp therapy.
