## Abstract In this study, we investigated the effect of type I collagen on dentin matrix proteinβ1 (Dmpβ1) and osteocalcin (OCN) gene expression of dental pulp cells. The mRNA level of Dmpβ1 gene was downβregulated; however, OCN gene expression was upβregulated by the culture of dental pulp cells
## Abstract DMP1 is an acidic phosphorylated protein with the spatial and temporal expression that is largely restricted to bone and tooth tissues. The biological function of DMP1 is associated with biomineralization of bone, cartilage and tooth development. To study the cellβspecific expression of
