| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The main purpose of this study was to determine the Maillard reaction in dentin. We focused on the crosslinking of collagen; namely, advanced glycation end products (AGEs) formed by non-enzymatic glycosylation. Fluorescence signals, electrophoresis, and Western blotting can be used as probes for this research. In this study, we examined the relationship between fluorescence characteristics and immunochemical analysis of type1 collagen from decalcified human dentin with respect to glycation, and considered the possible influence of crosslinking on dentinal physiology.
The accumulation of AGEs with aging may be responsible for the changes in fluorescence lifetime and immunochemical properties. Fluorescence microscopy and electrophoresis can provide useful crosslinking information on the aging phenomenon in human dentin. These results suggest that dentinal aging might be affected by reducing sugars in the blood.
