Bioengineering the ameloblastoma tumour to study its effect on bone nodule formation [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 Ameloblastoma is a benign, epithelial cancer of the jawbone, which causes bone resorption and disfigurement to patients affected. The interaction of ameloblastoma with its tumour stroma drives invasion and progression.

Discovery of novel molecular characteristics and cellular biological properties in ameloblastoma
Cancer Medicine, 2020 Ameloblastoma is a rare odontogenic benign tumor accounting for less than 1% of head and neck tumors. Advanced next generation sequencing (NGS) analyses identified high frequency of BRAF V600E and SMO L412F mutations in ameloblastoma.

Differentially expressed extracellular matrix genes functionally separate ameloblastoma from odontogenic keratocyst [PDF]
BMC Oral HealthBackground Ameloblastoma and odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) are odontogenic tumors that develop from remnants of odontogenic epithelium. Both display locally invasive growth characteristics and high predilection for recurrence after surgical removal.

Investigation of PTEN promoter methylation in ameloblastoma [PDF]
Medicina Oral, 2020 Background Phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) acts as a tumor suppressor gene. Inactivation of PTEN has been reported in various types of cancers. PTEN promoter methylation possibly underlies PTEN inactivation, which results in tumorigenesis.
