title: Production of monoclonal antibodies against mouse molar papilla cells.
abstract: To develop markers for the analysis of the molecular mechanisms of dental papilla cells differentiation, 10 monoclonal antibodies were produced against trypsin-isolated mouse molar dental papilla cells. These antibodies identify matrix components, cell membrane associated antigens and intracellular-constituents. Changes of the staining patterns were correlated with a typological hierarchy of dental papilla cells and with terminal differentiation of odontoblasts.
