Odontogenic cysts are classified into inflammatory and developmental origins. The most common representative inflammatory cyst is periapical cyst and the most common representative developmental cyst is dentigerous cyst and cyst which show character of tumor is odontogenic keratocyst and cyst of which cystic epithleial lining cells transform to ameloblastoma is unicystic ameloblastoma. About ten years ago p63 protein that are closely related to p53 protein was found. Authors studied about comparative pattern of expression of p63 protein in periapical cyst, dentigerous cysts, odontogenic kertocysts and unicystic ameloblastomas. Authors selected 10 cases for every four types of cyst and performed immunohistochemical staining by using monoclonal antibody about p63 protein, LSAB(labelled streptoavidin biotin) reactant and HRP(horse raish peroxidase) system. Positive cells about p63 protein were expressed at basal layer of cystic lining epithelium in periapical cysts, odontogenic keratocysts and unicytic ameloblastomas. On the contrary, in dentigerous cysts positive cells were expressed at surfce layer. Perapical cysts and odontogenic keratocysts showed significantly high values of labelling indices.(periapical cyst:72.49%, odontogenic keratocyst:64.72%, dentigerous cyst:8.94%, unicystic ameloblastoma: 5.25%) Odontogenic keratocyst showed the most strong staining intensity and the second was periapical cyst, the third was dentigerous cyst, and lastly unicystic ameloblastoma. Conclusively cause that the positive cells appeared at surface layer in dentigerous cyst reflected the position of epithelium to the enamel, and labelling indices of p63 protein were closely related to proliferative capacity and intensity of expression closely related to the labelling index and thus labelling index was also closely related to proliferative capacity of cystic lining epithelium.

Chronic hyperplastic candidiasis (CHC) is characterized by epithelial hyperplasia of the oral mucosa associated with candidal hyphae. The immune status of host is one of the factors that induce clinically evident candidal infection. Host defense mechanisms include inflammatory cells, epithelial barrier, and antimicrobial peptides such as human beta 2 defensin (hBD-2). In the present study, we investigated the densities of CD4+/CD8+ T lymphocytes and hBD-2 expression of epithelial cells in CHC. Immunohistochemical staining was performed on 10 cases of CHC using CD4, CD8 and hBD-2. Ten specimens of chronic mucositis were selected for comparison, and went through the same examination. hBD-2 was expressed in the spinous cell layers and the keratin layers of 7 CHC patients, while the epithelium of chronic mucositis did not demonstrate the hBD-2 expression except for one case. Also, hBD-2 expression was stronger when the hyphae invaded the upper stratum spinosum (P =.019). However, the densities of CD8+ T lymphocytes were significantly lower in the CHC patients, suggesting that the ability of CD8+ T cells to enter the epithelium and target the pathogenic hyphae was decreased in CHC. Increased hBD-2 expression seemed to be significantly associated with the candidal infection, while not promoting the cell-mediated immune reaction in CHC.

Numerous reports on the immunopathogenesis of an oral lichen planus (OLP) have shown some inconsistency in terms of the role and distribution of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, and Langerhans cells (LC). This has led to the hypothesis that although the clinical and histopathological manifestations of OLPs appear similar, they can be grouped into CD4+ predominant lesions and CD8+ ones on the varied immunopathogenesis or clinical progress. This study investigated the distribution of CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, LC and the ratio of CD4/CD8 and defined the important immunocompetent cells. In addition, the clinicopathological and histopathological correlation with those immunocompetent cells were investigated. Frozen sections of 16 OLPs and 5 normal buccal mucosae were immunostained. Quantification was done using KAPPA Imagebase software and statistical analysis using SPSS 10.0 statistical package. CD8+ T cells were consistently more abundant in the epithelium of the OLP than CD4+ T cells, but no difference between the two cells was detected in the lamina propria. The intra-epithelial CD4+ T cells revealed a positive linear correlation with the intra-epithelial CD8+ T cells. In the lamina propria, the number of LC had a positive linear correlation with CD4/CD8 ratio. The number of LCs was higher in the reticular type of OLP compared to the erosive type. The histopathological features such as hyperkeratosis, acanthosis, the band-like infiltration of mononuclear cells, and liquefaction degeneration did not show significant correlation with the CD4/CD8 ratio. The results suggest that CD8+ T cells play major role in immunopathogenesis of OLP. The immunopathogenesis of OLP appears to vary from lesion to lesion in relation to the clinical progress.

Several recent studies have detected genetic and cytogenetic alterations in epithelial odontogenic tumors. However, the detailed mechanisms of oncogenesis, cytodifferention, and tumor progression remain unknown. p63 as p53 homolog gene has been identified at loci 3q27-29. The p53 signaling cascade has an important role in oncogenesis or cyto- differentiation of odontogenic epithelium. Recently, several syndromes associated with p63 gene mutations have shown to include various tooth abnormalities of both the primary and permanent dentition. But little is known about p63 expression in odontogenic tumors, especially ameloblastomas. The purpose of this study were to examine various expression of p63 in ameloblastomas by immunohistochemistry and to clarify the possible biological role of p63 in ameloblastomas. 15 specimens including 6 follicular, 4 plexiform, 3 acanthomatous, and 2 granular cell types were fixed in 10% neutral formalin. 4um thick sections were used for routine H&E and immunohistochemical examinations. After immuno- histochemical satining, they were examined at a final magnification of 400X. For each case a minimum of 1000 nuclei located in the central and peripheral layers were counted in up to 10 consecutive microscopic fields per case. The immunoreactive cells were evaluated semiquantitatively. Immunoreactivity for p63 in all the types of ameloblastomas was higher in peripheral neoplastic cells than in central neoplastic cells. Keratinizing cells in acanthomatous ameloblastoma and granular cells in granular cell ameloblastoma showed markedly decreased reactivity for p63 in acanthomatous and granular cell ameloblastoma. Labelling index of acanthomatous, plexiform, and granular cell type was 86±11%, 81±17% and 83±15% in peripheral area while 88±14%, 82±11% and 76±10% in central area, respectively. Labelling index of follicular type was 17±4% in peripheral area while 21±3% in central area. There was no significant relationship between plexiform, acanthomaous, and granular cell type, while significant relationships between follicular and acanthomatous type, between plexiform and follicular type, and between granular cell and follicular type, respectively. It suggested that p63 expression could paly an important role in the pathogenesis of ameloblastomas. Morever plexiform, acanthomatous, and granular cell type would show more aggressive proliferative potentiality than follicular type.

A 78 year-old male complained of mild pain at a gingival mass on his anterior mandible, injured and ulcerated by autobicycle accident six months ago. He had suffered from uncontrolled diabetes. The tumor specimens from his chin and gingiva were examined by immunohistochemical method, and their microsections showed poorly differentiated polygonal tumor cells, occasionally formed ductal structures. The tumor cells grew infiltratively into adjacent fibromuscular tissue with frequent atypical mitosis, exhibiting the features of poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma. However, in the computed tomography(CT) view a tumor mass was also found in his lung, and diagnosed lung cancer. In the immunohistochemical observation the tumor cells were strongly positive for thyroid transcription factor 1(TTF-1), cytokeratin 7, PCNA, p53, and PIM-1, occasionally positive for p63, but sparsely positive for survivin. The tumor cells were almost negative for S-100, cytokeratin 14, and α-SMA, while the vascular structures in the tumor tissue were conspicuously demarcated by the stains of α-SMA. Taken together, the present case was finally diagnosed poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma, metastasized from lung adenocarcinoma. And it was presumed that the metastatic tumor cells tended to be anchored in the traumatized area of anterior mandible, where the wound healing was undergoing with de novo angiogenesis and the activation of different cytokines and growth factors

A dentigerous cyst (DC) and an odontogenc fibroma (OF) in the jaws are well known entities, which have been reviewed extensively. However, the presence of OF components in the wall of dentigerous cyst is a very rare event. A case of DC in the left mandible displaying the foci of an OF-like lesion is described. It is unclear whether the two lesions were just coincidental or were actually related to each other. However, OF-like proliferation may be arised from secondary epithelial and mesenchymal interactions in a pre-existing DC, although the initiating stimulus could not be identified.
