CD44 expression in Dentigerous cyst, Radicular cyst and Ameloblastoma, by immunohistochemical analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
The expression of cell adhesion molecule CD44s was analyzed immunohistochemically in 20 odontogenic lesions. CD44s was detected in almost all the cells on the cell membrane in basal and parabasal cells of the odontogenic cystic lining of the dentigerous cysts and the radicular cysts sparing the superficial layer of the cystic lining. CD44s was expressed on the cell membrane of the peripheral columnar cells and in the stellate cells, but were very negligible in the keratinizing areas.

Immunohistochemical Expression of PCNA in Epithelial Linings of Selected Odontogenic Lesions.
AIM Though odontogenic lesions have in common origin from the primitive odontogenic epithelium , there is a diversity in their initiation behavior and growth. The aggressive nature of odontogenic keratocyst similar to ameloblastoma in comparision with the other common odontogenic (dentigerous and radicular) cyst could be due to possible differences in their epithelial linings. PCNA (Proliferati...

Aims: The aim of the current study was to detect and compare Human papillomavirus (HPV) in dentigerous cyst and ameloblastoma. Materials and methods: The study included 32 samples, which distributed into dentigerous cysts (n=16) and ameloblastomas (n=16). Conventional PCR assay using SPF1/2 consensus primers and immunohistochemical analysis were performed for the detection of HPV‒DNA and HPV‒L1...
متن کاملImmunohistochemical Analysis of P63 Expression in Odontogenic Lesions
P63 may have a role in tumorigenesis and cytodifferentiation of odontogenic lesions. We investigated the immunohistochemical expression of P63 in a total of 30 cases of odontogenic cysts and tumors. The percentage of positive cells was calculated in the lining of odontogenic cysts and islands of ameloblastoma. P63 expression was evident in all types of odontogenic lesions. P63 was expressed thr...
