Evidence for the presence of lactoferrin in odontogenic keratocyst fluids.
Investigations into the possibility that X (an antigen consistently present in aspirated odontogenic keratocysts, but not in most fluids from other cyst types), represented a keratinocyte component failed to identify the antigen as a keratin, involucrin, or one of the blood group substances. Antigen X was detected in human mixed and parotid saliva and in colostrum, as well as in a commercially ...
متن کاملQuantitation of lactoferrin in odontogenic cyst fluids.
A competitive enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method was used to measure the concentration of lactoferrin in fluids from 36 odontogenic keratocysts, 15 dentigerous cysts, and 30 radicular/residual cysts. Keratocyst fluids contained significantly higher concentrations of lactoferrin than fluids from the other two types of cyst (p less than 0.001); but the range of values obtained withi...
متن کاملRecognition of protein apparently specific to odontogenic keratocyst fluids.
Separate antisera were raised against keratocyst, dentigerous cyst, and radicular cyst fluids and used to analyse a range of fluids from cysts of known type. Samples were subjected to crossed immunoelectrophoresis into homologous antiserum through an intermediate gel containing antibody to whole human serum to screen out serum derived components. A major antigen, designated X, which seems to be...
متن کاملInvestigating the Presence of Mast Cells in Odontogenic keratocyst and Radicular cyst
Background and purpose: Inflammatory cells including mast cells, with the production of inflammatory mediators such as heparin and histamine participate in the process of inflammation and jaw resorption. Considering the increasing growth of cysts and the role of mast cells in the process of bone resorption, the role of mast cells might be considered in pathogenesis and growth of cysts. The aim ...
متن کاملMaxillary odontogenic keratocyst
JADA, Vol. 134, July 2003 877 The canine region is the most common location for the odontogenic keratocyst in the maxilla. D E N T I S T R Y & M E D I C I N E views and intraoral periapical films, in most cases are adequate to determine the location and estimate the size of an OKC. Advanced imaging techniques like computerized tomography and magnetic resonance imaging can be useful in large cas...
