Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the temporal and spatial distrib ut ions of collagenⅠ and Ⅲ during mouse tooth germ development and their function s during tooth mineralization.Methods:Immunohistochemistry stain ing technique was used to test the expressions of collagen Ⅰ and Ⅲ during mous e tooth germ development. Results:collagen Ⅲ was positive in or al epithelial cells in bud stage,in oral epithelial cells and in stellate reticu lum cells in cap stage. During bell and differentiation stage,collagen Ⅲ was positive in oral epithelial cells, stellate reticulum cells, dental papilla cell s and dental sac cells. During P2-10 d(crown development stage), collagen Ⅲ was expressed possitively in ameloblasts,enamel matrix,odontoblasts,predentin, dental papilla cells,dental sac cells and pulp tissues. During P10-30 d(toot h root development stage),collagen Ⅲ was strongly positive in Hertwig's epithe lial root sheath, cementum, alveolar bone and periodontal ligament cells apart f rom above mentioned cell types. CollagenⅠ was not expressed in bud stage and wa s positive in oral epithelial cells,stellate reticulum cells in cap stage. Durin g bell and differentiation stage,collagen Ⅰ was positive in oral epithelial ce lls, stellate reticulum cells, dental papilla cells and dental sac cells.After P2 d (crown and root development stage), the distribution and expression of co llagen Ⅰ were similar to those of collagen Ⅲ.Conclusions:Coll agenⅠand Ⅲ are involved in tooth germ and tooth tissue development. But the fu nction of collagenⅢ is more extensive than that of collagenⅠ.
