| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Osterix was localized in odontoblasts just beginning dentin matrix secretion during the processes of dentin formation and regeneration. However, as dentin formation progressed, this immunoreactivity decreased in intensity. In addition, although osteoblasts that were differentiated from dental pulp cells maintained the reactivity of Osterix, this reactivity was not detected in mature odontoblasts originated from pulp cells. Therefore, these results suggest that temporary expression of Osterix in odontoblast-lineage cells might play important roles in odontoblast differentiation and regeneration.
