Expression of cadherin 1 in mouse tooth

Cdh1; E-cadherin; E-Cd; uvomorulin (Uvo); L-Cam; Cdhe; Ecad; calsium dependent epithelial adhesion protein

Species: mouse
Tooth: molar and incisor
Method: immunochemistry, antibody: monoclonal


Bud stage
Expression: oral epithelium, dental epithelium
No expression: basement membrane, dental mesenchyme

Cap stage
Expression: oral epithelium, outer enamel epithelium, stellate reticulum
No expression: inner enamel epithelium, enamel knot, basement membrane, dental papilla, dental sac

Bell stage
Expression: oral epithelium, outer enamel epithelium, inner enamel epithelium, stratum intermedia, stellate reticulum
No expression: basement membrane, dental papilla, dental sac

Late bell
(differentiation) stage
Expression: outer enamel epithelium, stratum intermedia, stellate reticulum, preameloblasts
No expression: basement membrane, dental papilla, dental sac, preodontoblasts

Secretory stage
Expression: outer enamel epithelium, stratum intermedia, stellate reticulum, ameloblasts
No expression: enamel, dental papilla, dental sac, odontoblasts, predentin

Root development
Expression: cementoblasts, periodontal ligament

Since the bell stage the mRNA distribution corresponded to the protein expression.
