Carbonic anhydrase XII in enamel maturation: TGF-β–responsive expression and association with enamel mineralization

Objectives Carbonic anhydrases (CAs) contribute to acid-base regulation during enamel mineralization; however, their regulation and roles in enamel maturation are unclear. Transforming growth factor (TGF)-β signaling may contribute to acid-base regulatory mechanisms during enamel...
