MDM2-Mediated p21 Proteasomal Degradation Promotes Fluoride Toxicity in Ameloblasts

Fluoride overexposure is an environmental health hazard and can cause enamel and skeletal fluorosis. Previously we demonstrated that fluoride increased acetylated-p53 and its downstream target <i>p21</i> in ameloblast-derived LS8 cells. However, p21 function in fluoride toxicity is not w...
