    Notes: The dental follicle is a loose connective tissue layer that surrounds the developing and erupting tooth. The follicle is necessary for tooth eruption in dogs and specific cellular changes occur in the follicle at the onset of tooth eruption, in particular, within the coronal region of the follicle next to areas of subsequent bone resorption there is an increase in mononuclear cells which have the ultrastructure features of monocytes and contain specific granules characteristic of preosteoclasts. The follicle has an extensive microvasculature and monocytes are often seen adjacent to capillaries and venules. Monocytes increase in number in direct proportion to the increase in osteoclasts that form the eruption pathway and decrease in number as soon as this activity is completed. It is postulated that monocytes enter the follicle from the microvasculature and then migrate to the walls of the bony crypt to participate in the formation of the eruption pathway.

    Notes: Summary Because the dental follicle is necessary for the eruption of teeth of limited eruption, it was the objective of this study to determine if the cells of the follicle could be cultured in vitro. To achieve this, dental follicles and associated enamel organs were dissected from the first and second mandibular molars of 6–7-day-old rats (secretory stage of amelogenesis), and then cultured in a medium that promotes fibroblast growth — the predominant cell type of the dental follicle. The cultured cells grew to confluency and were kept through 3 passages before experimentation. The cultured cells were fibroblastic in shape, elongate with processes, and transmission electron microscopy revealed that they contained an abundant rough endoplasmic reticulum, but did not form desmosomes. Immunofluorescent staining for anti-vimentin showed that all the cells stained and electron-microscopic immunogold labeling indicated that the antibody was associated with intermediate filaments. As revealed by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and Western blotting, the cultured cells synthesized and secreted the extracellular matrix molecules fibronectin and procollagens. Subsequent immunofluorescence staining of permeabilized and non-permeabilized cells confirmed the presence of fibronectin and type I collagen both intra- and extracellularly. Thus, based on all the above characteristics, the cultured cells appeared to be fibroblasts derived from the dental follicle, although a few of the fibroblasts may be derived from undifferentiated mesenchymal cells interposed between the alveolar bone and follicle. Experiments now can be conducted to determine how these cultured cells respond directly to growth factors that alter the rates of tooth eruption.

    Notes: Abstract Immunolocalization of interleukin-1α in the first mandibular molars of rats from day 0–12 postnatally showed that the protein was localized in the epithelial stellate reticulum adjacent to the dental follicle. Staining of the stellate reticulum was most prominent in the early days postnatally and was absent by postnatal day 11. Injection of epidermal growth factor into rats at day 0 greatly increased the intensity of the staining for interleukin-1α in the stellate reticulum. Epidermal growth factor (EGF) enhanced the gene expression of interleukin-1α in stellate reticulum cells in vitro, and this study suggests there is enhanced translation of interleukin-1α messenger RNA in the stellate reticulum following EGF injection. In turn, the interleukin-1α may exert its effect on the dental follicle cells adjacent to the stellate reticulum because EGF also enhanced expression of the interleukin-1 receptor type I messenger RNA in cultured dental follicle cells as well as enhancing its expression in vivo. In view of the fact that injection of EGF will stimulate precocious eruption of teeth, its stimulus of interleukin-1α synthesis in the stellate reticulum may be the mechanism by which EGF initiates a cascade of molecular events to signal the onset of tooth eruption.

    Effects of epidermal growth factor (EGF) and colony-stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1) on expression of c-fos in rat mandibular molars: implications for tooth eruption (1996)

    Notes: Abstract. The c-fos gene is expressed in the dental follicle of the first mandibular molar of rats. Molecules that accelerate tooth eruption, epidermal growth factor (EGF) and colony-stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1), enhance the expression of the c-fos gene in vitro in both a time- and concentration-dependent manner. In vivo, EGF enhances c-fos expression in the follicle from day 0–7 postnatally, but by day 9 the follicle is refractory to this stimulus. Immunostaining reveals that the c-fos gene is translated in the cultured dental follicle cells, with staining seen in the nucleus and the perinuclear region of the cytoplasm. In vivo, immunostaining for c-fos is prominent in the dental follicle early postnatally, with little or no staining seen in the stellate reticulum and dental pulp. By day 10 postnatally, staining for c-fos is greatly reduced in the dental follicle. Thus, the presence of c-fos early postnatally in the tissue required for eruption, the dental follicle, as well as the enhancement of c-fos gene expression in the follicle by EGF or CSF-1, suggests that c-fos plays a role in tooth eruption. That role may be either to promote differentiation of mononuclear cells into osteoclasts needed for eruption or to recruit the mononuclear cells into the follicle.
