|
|
• incisors are opaque, exhibit severe dentin abrasion and are coated in a thin layer of calcified material unlike in wild-type mice

craniofacial
|
• tooth surfaces are rough and highly irregular
• amelogenin is produced by ameloblasts but enamelin is absent in all P5 and P14 mutants, and it pools in the enamel space as well as inside and between ameloblasts
|
|
• maxillary and mandibular incisors show cyst formation
|
|
• abnormal ameloblast aggregations and cyst-like bulges, containing amelogenin are seen in molars

|
|
• abnormal mineral mixed with amelogenins are present extracellularly
|
|
• the enamel space is irregularly thin except for a significant bulge on the mesial cuspal slope
• abnormal accumulations of enamel matrix
• mineral crystals in the enamel rods are more distinct
• blunting of the incisal edge and cuspal tips of molars indicate altered enamel hardness

|
|
• ameloblasts completely lose their polarity at P7, aggregate abnormally, and are unable to maintain an even enamel space
• ameloblasts lack a Tomes process and tall columnar shape

|
|
