Osteopontin expression in reactive lesions of gingiva
Reactive proliferations of the gingiva comprise lesions such as pyogenic granuloma (PG), inflammatory fibroepithelial hyperplasia (IFH), peripheral ossifying fibroma (POF), and peripheral giant cell lesion. Osteopontin (OPN) has a dual role, it promotes mineralization when it is bound to solid substrate, and on the other hand, it inhibits mineralization when it is seen in association with solut...
متن کاملReactive Lesions of the Gingiva: Diagnosis and Treatment Options
Reactive lesions found on the gingiva are common and tend to be non-neoplastic growths. They are usually not painful and are often overlooked by the patient until they become symptomatic or are identified by their dental healthcare provider. Since they may be present for weeks to months, it is common to see ulceration of the surface tissue due to trauma. They have a recurrence rate of 5 – 20% a...
متن کاملDiagnostic and Biological Significance of Immunohistochemical Expression of Osteopontin and Ki67 in Fibro-osseous lesions of jaws
Background and Aim: Fibrous dysplasia (FD) and ossifying fibroma (OF) are the most important fibro-osseous lesions (FOLs) of the jaws with similarities in radiographic and morphological features while showing completely different biological behavior. Limited studies have been evaluated immunohistochemistry markers, such as osteopontin (OPN) and osteocalcin to help differentiate these two lesion...
