Expression of caveolin-1 in tooth germ, ameloblastoma and ameloblastic carcinoma

Background: The caveolin-1 protein (structural component of membrane caveolae) plays important roles in sev eral biological functions, such as endocytosis, cell adhesion, and cell signaling. However, this protein has been as sociated with mechanisms of tumorigenesis in several neoplasms. The express...

Summary:Background: The caveolin-1 protein (structural component of membrane caveolae) plays important roles in sev eral biological functions, such as endocytosis, cell adhesion, and cell signaling. However, this protein has been as sociated with mechanisms of tumorigenesis in several neoplasms. The expression patterns and roles of caveolin-1 in the oral epithelium and in embryonic and odontogenic tumor tissues are still unclear.
