Quantitative estimation of AgNORs in normal, dysplastic and malignant oral mucosa.
AIMS Silver stainable nucleolar organizer regions (AgNORs) have received a great deal of attention recently as their frequency within the nuclei is significantly higher in malignant cells than in normal, reactive or benign neoplastic cells. The objective of this study was to carry out a quantitative assessment of large and small AgNORs in oral normal mucosa, precancerous lesions and infiltratin...
متن کاملImmunohistochemical Eexpression of Endothelin A Receptor in Dysplastic Oral Mucosa
Background: Recent researches have provided evidences of the importance of endothelin axis in carcinogenesis. According to our knowledge, no data exists about endothelin A receptor (ETA) expression in dysplastic oral mucosa (DOM). Therefore, the aim of the present study was to evaluate immunohistochemical expression of ETA in DOM. Methods:</strong...
متن کاملComparative Study of Expression of Smad3 in Oral Lichen Planus and Normal Oral Mucosa
Oral lichen planus (OLP) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the oral mucosa which is considered by the World Health Organization (WHO) as a premalignant condition. One step in malignant development is so called epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT), a process whereby epithelial cells acquire mesenchymal characteristics. A factor known to induce EMT is the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β...
متن کاملASSESSMENT OF TUMOR MARKERS IN BENIGN, DYSPLASTIC AND MALIGNANT ORAL MUCOSAL LESIONS
Immunohistochemical demonstration of tumor-associated markers may be valuable as an adjunct to conventional histology for determination of malignancy development in oral mucosal diseases. Accordingly, the present study determined the distribution of some important tumor markers such as heat shock proteins (HSP), fibroblast growth factors (FGF) and transferrin receptors (TF-R) in 22 samples ...
متن کاملVascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) Expression in Normal, Dysplastic and Neoplastic Squamous Epithelium of Oral Mucosa
BACKGROUND: VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) is one of the growth factors, which directly affects vascular endothelial cells and evokes proliferation, migration and chemotaxis of endothelial cells. Studies have provided inconsistent results about the expression of VEGF in the squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) or oral mucosa. The purpose of the present study was to assess the frequency of V...
