Collagen gene expression during mouse molar tooth development was studied by quantitative in situ hybridization techniques. Different expression patterns of type I and type III collagen mRNAs were observed in the various mesenchymal tissues that constitute the tooth germ. High concentration for pro-alpha 1(I) and pro-alpha 2(I) collagen mRNAs were found within the osteoblasts. We found that the cellular content of type I collagen mRNAs in the odontoblasts varies throughout the tooth formation: whereas mRNA concentration for pro-alpha 1(I) collagen decreases and that of pro-alpha 2(I) increases, during postnatal development. Moreover, different amounts of pro-alpha 1(I) and pro-alpha 2(I) collagen mRNAs were observed in crown and root odontoblasts, respectively. Type III collagen mRNAs were detected in most of the mesenchymal cells, codistributed with type I collagen mRNAs, except in odontoblasts and osteoblasts. Finally, this study reports differential accumulation of collagen mRNAs during mouse tooth development and points out that type I collagen gene expression is regulated by distinct mechanisms during odontoblast differentiation process. These results support the independent expression of the collagen genes under developmental tissue-specific control.

D008815 Mice, Inbred Strains Genetically identical individuals developed from brother and sister matings which have been carried out for twenty or more generations, or by parent x offspring matings carried out with certain restrictions. All animals within an inbred strain trace back to a common ancestor in the twentieth generation.

D008963 Molar The most posterior teeth on either side of the jaw, totaling eight in the deciduous dentition (2 on each side, upper and lower), and usually 12 in the permanent dentition (three on each side, upper and lower). They are grinding teeth, having large crowns and broad chewing surfaces. (Jablonski, Dictionary of Dentistry, 1992, p821) Molars
D009804 Odontoblasts The mesenchymal cells which line the DENTAL PULP CAVITY and produce DENTIN. They have a columnar morphology in the coronal pulp but are cuboidal in the root pulp, or when adjacent to tertiary dentin. Odontoblast
D009805 Odontogenesis The process of TOOTH formation. It is divided into several stages including: the dental lamina stage, the bud stage, the cap stage, and the bell stage. Odontogenesis includes the production of tooth enamel (AMELOGENESIS), dentin (DENTINOGENESIS), and dental cementum (CEMENTOGENESIS). Odontogeneses
D002454 Cell Differentiation Progressive restriction of the developmental potential and increasing specialization of function that leads to the formation of specialized cells, tissues, and organs. Differentiation, Cell,Cell Differentiations,Differentiations, Cell
D003094 Collagen A polypeptide substance comprising about one third of the total protein in mammalian organisms. It is the main constituent of SKIN; CONNECTIVE TISSUE; and the organic substance of bones (BONE AND BONES) and teeth (TOOTH).

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA. Animal,Metazoa,Animalia
D012333 RNA, Messenger RNA sequences that serve as templates for protein synthesis. Bacterial mRNAs are generally primary transcripts in that they do not require post-transcriptional processing. Eukaryotic mRNA is synthesized in the nucleus and must be exported to the cytoplasm for translation. Most eukaryotic mRNAs have a sequence of polyadenylic acid at the 3' end, referred to as the poly(A) tail. The function of this tail is not known for certain, but it may play a role in the export of mature mRNA from the nucleus as well as in helping stabilize some mRNA molecules by retarding their degradation in the cytoplasm.
