MMP20 mutations cause human autosomal recessive pigmented hypomaturation-type amelogenesis imperfecta (AI2A2; OMIM #612529). MMP20 is expressed in both odontoblasts and ameloblasts, but its function during dentinogenesis is unclear. Methods: We characterized 10 AI kindreds with MMP20 defects, characterized human third molars and/or Mmp20?/? mice by histology, Backscattered Scanning Electron Microscopy (bSEM), ?CT, and nanohardness testing. Results: We identified six novel MMP20 disease-causing mutations. Four pathogenic variants were associated with exons encoding the MMP20 hemopexin-like (PEX) domain, suggesting a necessary regulatory function. Mutant human enamel hardness was softest (13% of normal) midway between the dentinoenamel junction (DEJ) and the enamel surface. bSEM and ?CT analyses of the third molars revealed reduced mineral density in both enamel and dentin. Dentin close to the DEJ showed an average hardness number 62%–69% of control. Characterization of Mmp20?/? mouse dentin revealed a significant reduction in dentin thickness and mineral density and a transient increase in predentin thickness, indicating disturbances in dentin matrix secretion and mineralization. Conclusion: These results expand the spectrum of MMP20 disease-causing mutations and provide the first evidence for MMP20 function during dentin formation. ? 2020 The Authors.
