BackgroundIn diphyodont mammals, the additional molars (permanent molars) bud off from the posterior-free end of the primary dental lamina compared with successional teeth (replacement teeth) budding off from the secondary dental lamina. The diphyodont miniature pig has proved to be a valuable model for studying human molar morphogenesis. The additional molars show a sequential initiation pattern related to the specific tooth development stage of additional molars in miniature pigs during the morphogenesis of additional molars. However, the molecular mechanisms of the regulatory network of mRNAs and long non-coding RNAs during sequential formation of additional molars remain poorly characterized in diphyodont mammals. Here, we performed RNA-seq and microarray on miniature pigs at three key molar developmental stages to examine their differential gene expression profiles and potential regulatory networks during additional molar morphogenesis.
