چکیده

background &amp; objectives: odontogenic cysts are among the most frequent destructive lesions of jaws which their pathogenesis and growth mechanism are not cleared. with respect to different roles of mast cells, they may play a role in the pathogenesis and growth of odontogenic cysts. the aim of present study was to evaluate mast cells in the most common odontogenic cyst. methods: thirty  paraffin-embedded  tissue  blocks  including  10  radicular  cysts,  10  dentigerous  cysts and 10 odontogenic keratocysts were used and 5 micron sections stained with toluidine blue and observed by light microscope under ×400 magnification to evaluate mast cells within these cysts. for each case, 5 high-power field areas, selected from hot-spot areas, were considered and each area divided into 3 zones: intra-epithelial zone, sub-epithelial zone and deep zone. results: most of the studied cyst showed presence of mast cells. there was not any significant difference in mast cell count between studied cysts (p-values > 0.05).with respect to intra-epithelial, sub-epithelial and deep zones, there was not any significant difference between three studied cysts. there was not any significant difference between sub-epithelial zone and deep zone within each of these cysts. there was only significant difference between intra-epithelial zone and sub-epithelial zone within dentigerous cysts and odontogenic keratocysts (p-value < 0.05). conclusion: prevalence of mast cells in fibrous wall of odontogenic cysts suggests their activity in these cysts. mast cells may not be directly involved in the pathogenesis of odontogenic keratocysts.

Histopathologic evaluation of mast cells in reticular and erosive oral lichen planus using toluidine blue staining

Introduction: Oral Lichen Planus (OLP) is one of the most common mucocutaneous lesion, and its etiologic factors have not been elucidated yet. OLP has two different clinical forms including reticular and erosive. Mast cells function in non-specific immunology is an etiologic factor involved in the formation of lichen planus. This study aimed at determining the pattern of mast cells presence in ...

Evaluation of mast cells in odontogenic cysts by toluidine blue & c-kit gene product (CD117)

Introduction: Odontogenic cysts are characterized by an expansile non–infiltrative growth through several mechanisms which include presence of mast cells in the capsule. The mast cells can be demonstrated histochemically as well as immunohistochemically. Aim and Objectives: The primary objective of the study was to analyze the presence and distribution of mast cells in radicular cyst, dentigero...

Investigating 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 ...
