Dentin, a complex, living, and porous mineral substance, is produced by the mineralization of predentin, which is secreted by odontoblasts. This substance is crucial for maintaining the health of teeth. However, the specific function of the vitamin D receptor (Vdr) in the mineralization of odontoblasts, dentin homeostasis, and its interaction with Wnt signaling pathway during dentin apposition is not well understood.

- Dentin is a complex material important for dental health, and the role of the vitamin D receptor (Vdr) in its repair and mineralization is not well understood.
- A study using Vdr-knockout mice showed that these mice had thicker predentin and expressed higher levels of proteins biglycan and decorin but had difficulty forming tertiary dentin after dental injury.
- The findings suggest that Vdr is essential for regulating dentin mineralization and repair processes, highlighting its importance in maintaining dental health.
A novel amperometric-type NO2 sensor based on La10Si5NbO27.5 (LSNO) electrolyte and nano-structured CuO sensing electrode was fabricated and tested. A bilayer LSNO electrolyte including both a dense layer and a porous layer was prepared by conventional solid state reaction method and screen-printing technology.
