Abstract
OBJECTIVES Amelogenins are clinically used in periodontal regeneration as main components of root surface modifying agents, even without specifically preventing the premature colonization of the healing tissue defect by means of a physical barrier membrane. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of human amelogenin on the proliferation, migration, and morphology of Immortalized Human Oral Keratinocytes (iHOKs). METHODS Immortalized Human Oral Keratinocytes were expanded in Keratinocyte Growth Medium-2 (KGM-2). Full-length recombinant amelogenin protein was diluted in KGM-2 in five concentrations (10 ng/ml, 100 ng/ml, 1.000 ng/ml, 5.000 ng/ml and 10.000 ng/ml). iHOKs were cultured in medium supplemented with the amelogenin dilutions. Samples without amelogenin served as control. Cell metabolism and cell proliferation together with cell migration were evaluated at day 7, 14, 21. RESULTS At day 7, iHOKs treated with 10,000 ng/ml showed a significant decrease in keratinocytes´ proliferation. The metabolic activity at this timepoint was significantly lower for concentrations ≥ 1000 ng/ml. At days 14 and 21, both the addition of 5000 ng/ml and even more 10,000 ng/ml amelogenin reduced significantly the proliferation of keratinocytes. The effects on the metabolic activity for these timepoints were visible already with 100 ng/ml. Treatment of iHOKs with amelogenin of ≥ 1000 ng/ml led to inhibitory effects on cell migration already after 24 h. CONCLUSIONS The full-length recombinant amelogenin has a significant biological impact on iHOKs. The increasing dose dependent inhibitory effects of amelogenin shown on iHOKs might explain the disruption of the apical migration of the junctional epithelium during regenerative healing. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE Amelogenin, presents time- and dose-dependent inhibitory effects on the growth of keratinocytes, which might explain the biological rationale behind its application in periodontal regeneration.

Expression and localization of amelotin, laminin γ2 and odontogenesis-associated phosphoprotein (ODAPH) on the basal lamina and junctional epithelium. J Mol Histol 2021; 53:111-118. [PMID: 34709488 DOI: 10.1007/s10735-021-10026-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/11/2021] [Accepted: 09/24/2021] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
At maturation stage of enamel development, a specialized basal lamina (sBL) was built between ameloblasts and enamel. After the teeth eruption, the ameloblasts transform into the inner cell layer of junctional epithelium. The inner cell layer forms the internal basal lamina of junctional epithelium. However, the composition of the sBL and internal basal lamina was not clarified. The objective of our study was to make a description of the localization of amelotin (AMTN), laminin γ2 (LAMC2) and Odontogenesis-associated phosphoprotein (ODAPH) on the sBL and internal basal lamina. In immunohistochemical study, AMTN, LAMC2 and ODAPH were detected on the sBL at maturation stage. AMTN was also detected in ameloblasts at maturation stage. The expression of AMTN decreased from early-to-late maturation stage. In contrast, the expression of LAMC2 and ODAPH was stable. Immunofluorescence double-staining showed the localization of AMTN was close to enamel surface. However, the localization of ODAPH was close to ameloblasts. LAMC2 and ODAPH were observed on internal basal lamina of junctional epithelium. In contrast, no expression of AMTN was detected on internal basal lamina of junctional epithelium. Our results suggested that ODAPH might participate in enamel maturation and periodontal health, which might provide a better understanding of enamel defects and periodontal disease in clinic.

Abstract
The junctional epithelium (JE) is an epithelial component that attaches directly to the tooth surface and performs the unique function of protecting against bacterial infections; its destruction causes inflammation of the periodontal tissue and loss of alveolar bone. A recent study that used the single-color lineage tracing method reported that JE is maintained by its stem cells. However, the process by which individual stem cells form the entire JE around a whole tooth remains unclear. Using a 4-color lineage tracing method, we performed a detailed examination of the dynamics of individual stem cells that constitute the entire JE. The multicolor lineage tracing method showed that single-color areas, which were derived from each cell color, replaced all the constituent JE cells 168 d after the administration of tamoxifen. The horizontal section of the first molar showed that the single-color areas in the JE expanded widely. We detected putative stem cells at the external basal layer farthest from the enamel. In this study, JE cells that were supplied from different stem cells were visualized as individual monochromatic regions, and the JE around the first molar was maintained by several JE-specific stem cells. These findings indicated that the JE consisted of several cell populations that were supplied from their multiple stem cells and could help to explore the mechanisms involved in periodontal tissue homeostasis.

Abstract
Stem cells in stratified epithelia are generally believed to adhere to a non-hierarchical single-progenitor model. Using lineage tracing and genetic label-retention assays, we show that the hard palatal epithelium of the oral cavity is unique in displaying marked proliferative heterogeneity. We identify a previously uncharacterized, infrequently-dividing stem cell population that resides within a candidate niche, the junctional zone (JZ). JZ stem cells tend to self-renew by planar symmetric divisions, respond to masticatory stresses, and promote wound healing, whereas frequently-dividing cells reside outside the JZ, preferentially renew through perpendicular asymmetric divisions, and are less responsive to injury. LRIG1 is enriched in the infrequently-dividing population in homeostasis, dynamically changes expression in response to tissue stresses, and promotes quiescence, whereas Igfbp5 preferentially labels a rapidly-growing, differentiation-prone population. These studies establish the oral mucosa as an important model system to study epithelial stem cell populations and how they respond to tissue stresses.

Abstract
The biochemical composition of the internal and external basal laminae in the junctional epithelium differs significantly, and the precise cellular origin of their respective molecules remains to be determined. In the present study, the expression and localization of three basement membrane-specific molecules-laminin 5 (γ2 chain), type IV collagen (α1 chain), and laminin 10 (α5 chain)-and one tooth-specific molecule, amelotin, was analyzed in adult murine gingiva by using in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry. The results showed that the outermost cells in junctional epithelium facing the tooth enamel strongly expressed laminin 5 mRNA, supporting the immunohistochemical staining data. This suggests that laminin 5 is actively synthesized in junctional epithelial cells and that the products are incorporated into the internal basal lamina to maintain firm epithelial adhesion to the tooth enamel throughout life. Conversely, no amelotin mRNA signals were detected in the junctional epithelial cells, suggesting that the molecules localized on the internal basal lamina are mainly derived from maturation-stage ameloblasts. Weak and sporadic expression of type IV collagen in addition to laminin 10 in the gingiva indicates that these molecules undergo turnover less frequently in adult animals.

Abstract
The junctional epithelium (JE) is an epithelial component that is directly attached to the tooth surface and has a protective function against periodontal diseases. In this study, we determined the origin of the JE using a bioengineered tooth technique. We transplanted the bioengineered tooth germ into the alveolar bone with an epithelial component that expressed green fluorescence protein. The reduced enamel epithelium from the bioengineered tooth fused with the oral epithelium, and the JE was apparently formed around the bioengineered tooth 50 days after transplantation. Importantly, the JE exhibited green fluorescence for at least 140 days after transplantation, suggesting that the JE was not replaced by oral epithelium. Therefore, our results demonstrated that the origin of the JE was the odontogenic epithelium, and odontogenic epithelium-derived JE was maintained for a relatively long period.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aims to observe the morphological characteristics and identify the function characteristics of junctional epithelium (JE) tissues and cultured JE cells. METHODS Paraffin sections of human molar or premolar on the gingival buccolingual side were prepared from 6 subjects. HE staining and image analysis were performed to measure and compare the morphological difference among JE, oral gingival epithelium (OGE) and sulcular epithelium (SE). Immunohistochemistry was applied to detect the expression pattern of cytokeratin 5/6, 7, 8/18, 10/13, 16, 17, 19, and 20 in JE, OGE and SE. On the other hand, primary human JE and OGE cells were cultured in vitro. Cell identify was confirmed by histology and immunohistochemistry. In a co-culture model, TEM was used to observe the attachment formation between JE cells and tooth surface. RESULTS Human JE was a unique tissue which was different from SE and OGE in morphology. Similarly, morphology of JE cells was also particular compared with OGE cells cultured in vitro. In addition, JE cells had a longer incubation period than OGE cells. Different expression of several CKs illustrated JE was in a characteristic of low differentiation and high regeneration. After being co-cultured for 14 d, multiple cell layers, basement membrane-like and hemidesmosome-like structures were appeared at the junction of JE cell membrane and tooth surface. CONCLUSIONS JE is a specially stratified epithelium with low differentiation and high regeneration ability in gingival tissue both in vivo and in vitro. In co-culture model, human JE cells can form basement membrane-like and hemidesmosome-like structures in about 2 weeks.
