Dentin defects caused by a Dspp −1 frameshift mutation are associated with the activation of autophagy

Abstract Dentin sialophosphoprotein (DSPP) is primarily expressed by differentiated odontoblasts (dentin-forming cells), and transiently expressed by presecretory ameloblasts (enamel-forming cells). Disease-causing DSPP mutations predominantly fall into two categories: 5’ mutations affecting targeti...
