Abstract
It is known to all that Wnt signaling pathway plays an important role in the early development of tooth. Our previous research found that Wnt signaling pathway played crucial roles in dental development, and mutations in antagonist of Wnt signaling pathway may lead to the formation of supernumerary teeth. However, the expression pattern of Wnt signaling molecules in early development of tooth, especially genes with stage specificity, remains unclear. Hence, we applied RNA-seq analysis to determine the expression levels of wnt signal molecules at five different stages of rat first molar tooth germ. In addition, after literature review we summarized the function of Wnt signaling molecules during tooth development and the relationship between Wnt signaling molecules variation and tooth agenesis. Our research may have implications for exploring the role of Wnt signaling molecules in different stages of tooth development.
期刊介绍:
Organogenesis is a peer-reviewed journal, available in print and online, that publishes significant advances on all aspects of organ development. The journal covers organogenesis in all multi-cellular organisms and also includes research into tissue engineering, artificial organs and organ substitutes.
The overriding criteria for publication in Organogenesis are originality, scientific merit and general interest. The audience of the journal consists primarily of researchers and advanced students of anatomy, developmental biology and tissue engineering.
The emphasis of the journal is on experimental papers (full-length and brief communications), but it will also publish reviews, hypotheses and commentaries. The Editors encourage the submission of addenda, which are essentially auto-commentaries on significant research recently published elsewhere with additional insights, new interpretations or speculations on a relevant topic. If you have interesting data or an original hypothesis about organ development or artificial organs, please send a pre-submission inquiry to the Editor-in-Chief. You will normally receive a reply within days. All manuscripts will be subjected to peer review, and accepted manuscripts will be posted to the electronic site of the journal immediately and will appear in print at the earliest opportunity thereafter.
