Using an in vitro system, the growth characteristics and enzyme histochemical properties of 3 odontogenic keratocysts and 3 dentigerous cysts were studied. It was found that the epithelial cells of the keratocysts but not of the dentigerous cysts grew in vitro. Furthermore, the epithelial-like cells
An histoenzymological study (including oxidative enzymes, diaphorases, acid and alkaline phosphatases and naphtolesterases) of 41 biopsy and operation specimens revealed interesting factors in the diagnosis of some lesions of the buccal mucosa, and also of cysts and ameloblastomas of the jaw. When
The aim of this study was to examine the level and basic characteristics of cell‑derived microparticles (MPs) in the cyst fluids of odontogenic keratocysts (OKCs). For this purpose, MPs from the cyst fluids (CFMPs) of OKCs were purified by a classic differential centrifugation method and
An histoenzymological study comprising oxidative enzymes, diaphorases, acid and alkaline phosphatases, naphtolesterases, referred to 60 biopsy and operation specimens. It showed interesting arguments for diagnosis and understanding of precancerous and cancerous lesions of the oral mucosa and also of
RANKL (receptor activator of nuclear factor kappaB ligand) promotes osteoclast differentiation, stimulates osteoclast activity, and prolongs osteoclast survival and adherence to bone. Abnormalities of the RANKL/RANK/osteoprotegerin system have been implicated in a range of diseases, including
