Absence of DNA viruses in ameloblastomas

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Oral Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Ameloblastomas (ABs) are rare odontogenic benign tumors. Although studies of the molecular pathogenesis have revealed the presence of mutations and altered gene expression, the etiology is unresolved. Viruses cause 10%–15 % of cancers, but their potential role within benign tumors is less studied.
