Abstract excerpt
Coordinated differentiation of the ameloblast cell layer is essential to enamel matrix protein deposition and subsequent mineralization. It has been hypothesized that this process is governed by Cx43-based gap junctional intercellular communication as oculodentodigital dysplasia (ODDD) patients h...
