amelogenesis imperfecta/albumin

Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) is a broad group of hereditary enamel defects that is characterized by a high degree of clinical diversity. Recently, the local hypoplastic form of autosomal dominant AI (AIH2) has been mapped to human chromosome 4q in a 17.6-cM region. This locus has been further

Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of inherited enamel defects. We recently mapped a locus for autosomal dominant local hypoplastic amelogenesis imperfecta (AIH2) to the long arm of chromosome 4. The disease gene was localized to a 17.6-cM region between

Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI), is an inherited odontological disease which affects the formation of enamel. We report a linkage analysis study performed on three Swedish families, where the affected members had an autosomal dominant variant of AI (ADAI) clinically characterized as local hypoplastic.

Amelogenesis imperfecta is a hereditary disease of the enamel that is unassociated with generalized defects. Cases of the condition are clinically classified into three groups: hypoplastic, hypomaturation, and hypocalcified. In this study, soluble protein fractions of the enamel from three patients

Amelogenesis imperfecta is a disfiguring inherited condition affecting tooth enamel. X-Linked and autosomal dominant and recessive inheritance patterns occur. X-Linked amelogenesis imperfecta has been studied extensively at the molecular level. Linkage analysis has shown that there is genetic

Amelogenesis imperfecta is a broad classification of hereditary enamel defects, exhibiting both genetic and clinical diversity. Most amelogenesis imperfecta cases are autosomal dominant disorders, yet only the local hypoplastic form has been mapped to human chromosome 4q between D4S242 1 and the

Growing interest in the treatment and prevention of Molar/Incisor Hypomineralization (MIH) warrants investigation into the protein composition of hypomineralized enamel. Hypothesizing abnormality akin to amelogenesis imperfecta, we profiled proteins in hypomineralized enamel from human permanent
