AI Article Synopsis

  • Tumors from odontogenic tissues are diverse and show the interactions of the developing tooth germ.
  • Adenomatoid odontogenic tumors (AOT) are benign, often found in the maxilla, and grow slowly, typically remaining small and painless.
  • There are three types of AOT: extrafollicular, follicular, and peripheral, usually developing near or around adjacent teeth.

Article Abstract

Unlabelled: Tumors and tumor-like growths arising from odontogenic tissues constitute a heterogeneous group of interesting lesions, as they display the various inductive interactions that normally occur among the embryologic components of the developing tooth germ. Adenomatoid odontogenic tumor is a benign tumor, most common in the maxilla, characterized by slow, progressive, painless growth of firm consistency, the size of which usually does not reach large proportions. They are of three types: extrafollicular, follicular, and peripheral. It usually develops around or overlaps adjacent teeth.

Adenomatoid odontogenic tumors (AOT), first described by Steensland in 1905, are benign, slowly enlarging, nonaggressive, odontogenic epithelial neoplasms comprising 3%-7% of all odontogenic tumors. They tend to originate from the dental lamina remnants or the reduced enamel epithelium. Mutation at codon 12 of KRAS oncogene (Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog) plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis.

Histone H3K9 Methylation Is Differentially Modified in Odontogenic Cyst and Tumors.

Eur J Dent

November 2024

Department of Oral Surgery and Oral Medicine, Faculty of Dentistry, Srinakharinwirot University, Bangkok, Thailand.

Objectives:  Histone modification in odontogenic lesions is mostly unexplored. Trimethylation of histone H3 at lysine residue 9 (H3K9Me3) has been studied in various pathologic conditions and showed biological significance promising for future therapeutic application. This study aimed to investigate the level and clinical relevance of the H3K9Me3 histone modification in odontogenic cysts and tumors.

Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Clinical Sciences, Faculty of Dentistry, Universiti Malaya, Kuala Lumpur, MYS.

Objectives: This study endeavors to bridge the long-term diagnostic and management gap through a comprehensive audit of odontogenic cysts and tumors in Kenya, offering crucial insights for both clinicians and policymakers.

Methods: Patient records (2001-2020) with odontogenic cysts and tumors were retrospectively abstracted from two major referral hospitals in Nairobi, Kenya, covering demographics, lesion location, and histological diagnosis. IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, Version 29.

The acetylation of histones H2A on lysine 5 (H2AacK5) and H3 on lysine 27 (H3AcK27) modulate several cellular mechanisms through the p300 enzyme in pathological lesions; however, their role in odontogenic lesions has not been addressed. This study aims to evaluate the immunoexpression of p300, H2AacK5, and H3AcK27 in samples of ameloblastoma (AMB) (n = 30), odontogenic keratocyst (OK) (n = 15), adenomatoid odontogenic tumor (AOT) (n = 10), odontogenic fibroma (OF) (n = 8), calcifying odontogenic cyst (COC) (n = 8), odontogenic myxoma (MIX) (n = 10), and ameloblastic fibroma (AF) (n = 06). The percentage of p300-positive cells was higher in AOT and decreased in COC, OK, AMB, AF, OF, and MIX.

Article Synopsis
  • Adenoid ameloblastoma (AA) is a rare but locally aggressive benign tumor derived from dental tissue remnants, and it was recently classified as a new type of odontogenic lesion by the WHO in 2022.
  • This tumor behaves more aggressively than similar types, presenting as a painless jaw swelling with a high recurrence rate and local invasiveness, and exhibits unique histopathological features such as a cribriform pattern and differential marker expression.
  • Due to its complex nature and unclear origins, AA requires thorough clinical evaluation and customized treatment approaches to manage recurrence and improve patient outcomes, with the latest research contributing to its understanding post-classification.
