Area of Science:

  • Biomineralization
  • Skeletal Biology
  • Materials Science

Background:

  • Mineral-matrix interactions are fundamental to hydroxyapatite formation in calcified tissues.
  • Anionic macromolecules bind to minerals, influencing crystal characteristics and deposition sites.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review mineral-matrix relationships in bone formation.
  • To outline mineralization control in mammalian calcified tissues.
  • To present the structural basis of matrix molecule-hydroxyapatite interactions.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of in vitro and in situ data.
  • Analysis of structural interactions between matrix molecules and hydroxyapatite.
  • Survey of endochondral, intramembranous, and appositional bone formation.

Main Results:

  • Collagen, extracellular matrix vesicles, and noncollagenous proteins influence mineralization.
  • Noncollagenous proteins can promote or inhibit mineral formation based on concentration and state.
  • Matrix molecules dictate crystal size, shape, deposition site, and type.

Conclusions:

  • Mineral-matrix interactions are key regulators of hydroxyapatite deposition in bone and teeth.
  • Understanding these interactions provides insight into controlling biomineralization processes.
  • Structural and functional data implicate matrix molecules in controlling mineralization.
