Amelogenin Exon 5 Peptide Promotes Cell Proliferation and Osteogenic Differentiation in Human Dental Pulp Stem Cells

Amelogenin is a complex enamel matrix protein that consists of various molecular-size proteins and amino acids. A spliced form of amelogenin was identified that included exons 2, 3, 5, 6, and 7. However, the biological function of amelogenin exon 5 on dental pulp remains unknown. We designed a synth...
