Looking closely at the sharp interface between mineralized/unmineralized collagen at the site of tooth attachment, we found that GAGs promote mineralization in dental tissues rather than inhibit it in the ligament! Read more below:
A research team led by Dr. Eli Sone have discovered a new role in mineralization played by a class of molecules, glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). Instead of β€˜switching’ off mineral formation, the GAGs promote the mineralization process. uoft.me/5VM
