| Research Abstract |
Although a number of studies suggest that many transcription factors participate in odontoblast differentiation, specific factors of odontoblast differentiation are still unknown. In the present study, immunohistochemical localizations for SUMO proteins and Osterix were visible in the immature odontoblasts ; however these immunoreactivities were reduced in the mature odontoblasts. These results demonstrate that reduction of expressions for SUMO proteins and Osterix in the mature odontoblasts might be necessary for dentin formation.
