J Oral Pathol Med (2012) 41: 332–339 Background: Canonical and non‐canonical Wnt
signaling pathways modulate diverse cellular processes during embryogenesis and post‐natally. …

Our study assesses changes in students’ knowledge and attitudes after participation in an
interprofessional, team-based, geriatric home training program. Second-year medical, …

Ameloblastoma is the most common odontogenic neoplasm, particularized by its local
invasiveness. Heparanase is the endo-glucuronidase enzyme that specifically cleaves heparan …

Background: Bone morphogenic protein (BMP) and Wnt signaling pathway molecules play
important roles in cytodifferentiation and cell proliferation. We attempted to localize these …

Background: Keratocystic odontogenic tumor (KCOT), also known as odontogenic keratocyst,
is a benign cystic neoplasm, which may be associated with nevoid basal cell carcinoma …

Background: Erdheim–Chester disease is a rare histiocytic disease entity related to juvenile
xanthogranuloma. It is a systemic condition, usually occurs in adult, characterized by …

Heparanase and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) are 2 key enzymes that modulate diverse
physiological processes during embryonic development and in adult life. Their deregulations …

Oral mucosal melanoma is an aggressive neoplasm with poor prognosis. Heparanase is an
endo-β-d-glucuronidase, which cleaves heparan sulphate chains. The vascular endothelial …

J Oral Pathol Med (2010) 39: 552–558 Background: In mammals, the Notch gene family
encodes four receptors (Notch1–4), and all of them are important for cell fate decisions. Notch …

Although the amelogenin gene is expressed in ameloblastoma, the precise expression pattern
of X and Y amelogenin genes (AMGX, AMGY) in this tumor has not yet identified. In this …
