Mandibular first molars of mouse embryos were cultivated for examination of the effects of calcitonin (CT) and/or parathyroid hormone (PTH) on the odontogenesis of the molars, and for determination of whether and how CT, which is a PTH antagonist, has an influence on the effect of PTH on odontogenesis. On the second day, the inner enamel epithelium in the control group had already differentiated into pre-ameloblasts. Typical odontoblasts had secreted a layer of pre-dentin. On the fourth day of culture, the pre-ameloblasts achieved terminal differentiation into secretory ameloblasts, and enamel and dentin had already been deposited. PTH (1 unit/mL) inhibited the odontogenesis of the cultured molars during the designated culture periods (two and four days), while CT (0.5 unit/mL) stimulated odontogenesis. On the second day, the development of the molars in the CT + PTH group showed an intermediate stage between the control and PTH-treated explants, but on day 4 it corresponded to that of the controls. Moreover, when the molars exposed to PTH for two days were untreated and treated with CT for an additional two days, the former produced a small yuantity of enamel matrix, while the latter formed a large amount of the matrix. These histological findings were also supported by a morphometric analysis of the enamel matrix in the cultured molars. The present results suggest that CT stimulates, but PTH suppresses, the odontogenesis of the mouse embryonic molars, and that CT is an antagonist to the inhibitory effect of PTH on odontogenesis.
