Malignant lymphoma is the second-most common malignancy in the head and neck region. Waldeyer's ring is the most common site of extranodal Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) in that region, and a small percentage of primary extranodal NHL occurs in the oral cavity. The most common sites of extranodal NHL in the oral region are the palate and maxilla, and nearly half of extranodal NHL cases arise from bone. It is difficult to diagnose extranodal NHL because of the variety of its radiological features. We report a case of primary extranodal NHL of the maxilla in a 68-year-old female patient with atypical imaging findings, along with the results of analysis of dynamic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). © 2011 Mosby, Inc.

Ameloblastic carcinoma is a rare malignant odontogenic carcinoma that has metastatic potential, and because of its rare incidence, there are few reports focusing on its radiologic imaging. If it shows aggressive appearances, it can be diagnosed as malignant tumor. But in case of negative appearance, it is difficult to distinguish ameloblastic carcinoma from ameloblastoma. We report a case of ameloblastic carcinoma of the maxilla in a 76-year-old female patient with radiologic images and pathologic features. © 2011 Mosby, Inc. All rights reserved.

Biological apatites are characterized by the presence of minor constituents such as magnesium (Mg), chloride (Cl), or fluoride (F) ions. These ions affect cell proliferation and osteoblastic differentiation during bone tissue formation. F-substituted apatites are being explored as potential bonegraft materials. The aim of the present study is to investigate the mechanism of bone formation induced by fluoride-substituted apatite (FAp) by analyzing the effect of FAp on the process of in vivo bone formation. FAps containing different F concentrations (l-FAp: 0.48wt%, m-FAp: 0.91wt%, h-FAp: 2.23wt%) and calcium-deficient apatite (CDA), as positive control, were implanted in rat tibia and bone formation was evaluated by histological examination, immuhistochemistry, in situ hybridization and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase examinations. The results showed that l-FAp, m-FAp, h-FAp, and CDA biomaterials allowed migration of macrophages, attachment, proliferation, and phenotypic expression of bone cells leading to new bone formation in direct apposition to the particles. However, the l-FAp preparation allowed faster bone conduction compared to the other experimental materials. These results suggest that FAp with low F concentration may be an efficient bonegraft material for dental and medical application. © 2010 The Author(s).

In head and neck, oral and maxillofacial region, there are many kinds of neoplasms, which may originate from squamous epithelium, salivary glands and tooth germ etc. Generally, neoplasm development is considered to arise due to the cumulative abnorm alities of tumor-associated genes, i.e. oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes (TSGs). As for the neoplasms in head and neck, oral and maxillofacial regions, the responsible genes specifically associated with tumorigenesis and/or invasiveness have not been well understood. Therefore the biological characteristics of these neoplasms are yet to be determined. In order to establish a new approach for the better understanding, early diagnosis and advanced therapeutic strategies, we considered application of loss of heterozygosity (LOH) analysis for detection of TSGs.LOH analysis is a highly sensitive and specific method to detect allelic deletion of specific chromosomal locations. Briefly, paired samples of genomic DNA extracted from normal and tumor tissues of the same patients are used for the study. Certain sequences on the chromosomal loci are amplified by PCR using microsatellite markers. The PCR products are loaded into polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and visualized with various methods including silver staining and SYBR green. Then the bands from normal and tumor DNA PCR products are compared. If the band form tumor DNA are weakened or disappeared as compared to normal counterpart after normalization with a band of housekeeping gene for each of normal and tumor DNA, LOH (+) is scored. Loci with frequent LOH might harbor TSGs.Based on the idea, we have reported several candidate TSGs as a carcinogenic as well as therapeutic target, including inhibition of growth (ING) and Dickkopf (Dkk) family of genes. LOH could be observed not only in malignant tumors but also in benign tumors. In this chapter, we will show the general data of LOH analysis in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) and ameloblastoma as the actual examples.HNSCC is the 6th or 7th most occurring cancer worldwide. Despite improvement in surgery, radiation and chemotherapy, often HNSCC is difficult to be controlled in the cases with lymph nodal and/or distant metastasis. Therefore, its total survival rate is yet to be improved during decades. On the other hand, ameloblastoma is the most common odontogenic tumor, which possesses strong local invasiveness, although it is a benign tumor. Ameloblastoma generally occurs in the young population, and sometimes aggressive bone resection is needed, which might result in the impaired quality of life. Therefore, establishment of new and less aggressive therapeutic approaches are needed. Application of LOH analysis and combination with statistical analysis might be a powerful tool for detection of the role of candidate TSGs as prognostic factor. © 2011 by Nova Science Publishers, Inc.

AIM: To investigate the possible biological outcome and effect of glutamine depletion in neonatal mice and rodent intestinal epithelial cells. METHODS: We developed three kinds of artificial milk with different amounts of glutamine; Complete amino acid milk (CAM), which is based on maternal mouse milk, glutamine-depleted milk (GDM), and glutaminerich milk (GRM). GRM contains three-fold more glutamine than CAM. Eighty-seven newborn mice were divided into three groups and were fed with either of CAM, GDM, or GRM via a recently improved nipple- bottle system for seven days. After the feeding period, the mice were subjected to macroscopic and microscopic observations by immunohistochemistry for 5-bromo-2'- deoxyuridine (BrdU) and Ki-67 as markers of cell proliferation, and for cleaved-caspase-3 as a marker of apoptosis. Moreover, IEC6 rat intestinal epithelial cells were cultured in different concentrations of glutamine and were subject to a 4-[3-(4-iodophenyl)-2-(4-nitrophenyl)- 2H-5-tetrazolio]-1,3-benzene disulfonate cell proliferation assay, flow cytometry, and western blotting to examine the biological effect of glutamine on cell growth and apoptosis. RESULTS: During the feeding period, we found colonic hemorrhage in six of 28 GDM-fed mice (21.4%), but not in the GRM-fed mice, with no differences in body weight gain between each group. Microscopic examination showed destruction of microvilli and the disappearance of glycocalyx of the intestinal wall in the colon epithelial tissues taken from GDM-fed mice. Intake of GDM reduced BrdU incorporation (the average percentage of BrdU-positive staining; GRM: 13.8%, CAM: 10.7%, GDM: 1.14%, GRM vs GDM: P < 0.001, CAM vs GDM: P < 0.001) and Ki-67 labeling index (the average percentage of Ki- 67-positive staining; GRM: 24.5%, CAM: 22.4% GDM: 19.4%, GRM vs GDM: P = 0.001, CAM vs GDM: P = 0.049), suggesting that glutamine depletion inhibited cell proliferation of intestinal epithelial cells. Glutamine deprivation further caused the deformation of the nuclear membrane and the plasma membrane, accompanied by chromatin degeneration and an absence of fat droplets from the colonic epithelia, indicating that the cells underwent apoptosis. Moreover, immunohistochemical analysis revealed the appearance of cleaved caspase-3 in colonic epithelial cells of GDM-fed mice. Finally, when IEC6 rat intestinal epithelial cells were cultured without glutamine, cell proliferation was significantly suppressed after 24 h (relative cell growth; 4 mmol/L: 100.0% ± 36.1%, 0 mmol/L: 25.3% ± 25.0%, P < 0.05), with severe cellular damage. The cells underwent apoptosis, accompanied by increased cell population in sub-G0 phase (4 mmol/L: 1.68%, 0.4 mmol/L: 1.35%, 0 mmol/L: 5.21%), where dying cells are supposed to accumulate. CONCLUSION: Glutamine is an important alimentary component for the maintenance of intestinal mucosa. Glutamine deprivation can cause instability of the intestinal epithelial alignment by increased apoptosis. © 2011 Baishideng. All rights reserved.

We examined the transplanted bone marrow-derived cell migration into periodontal tissues. Bone marrow cells from green fluorescent protein (GFP) transgenic mice were transplanted. The immunohistochemistry (IHC) revealed that GFP-positive cells were detected in the periodontal tissues. The GFP-positive cells histopathologically differentiated into some cell types. The fluorescence IHC and TRAP staining techniques demonstrated these cells were detected as osteoclasts and macrophages. Furthermore, GFP-positive cells gathered adjacent blood vessels. The data suggest that GFP-positive bone marrow-derived cell migrate into periodontal tissues and differentiate periodontal tissue component-cells. © 2011 The Hard Tissue Biology Network Association.

Phosphatase of regenerating liver (PRL) belongs to a class of the protein tyrosine phosphatase family, which is known so far to consist of 3 members, PRL-1, PRL-2, and PRL-3. The aim of this study was to uncover the role of PRL genes in development of oral malignancy. We analyzed expression levels of the 3 PRL genes in 50 human oral squamous cell carcinomas (OSCCs), 11 dysplasia and 12 normal mucosa tissues by a real-time RTPCR method. PRL-3 but not PRL-1 or PRL-2 expressions were significantly higher in OSCC and dysplasia than in normal mucosa tissues. Additionally, PRL-3 expressions were significantly higher in OSCC tissues harboring dominant-negative p53 or recessive p53 mutation than in those harboring wild-type p53. These results suggest that PRL-3 plays a role in oral cancer development and can be useful as a marker of pre-malignant and malignant lesion of oral mucosa.

The calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor (CEOT) is a benign but locally-invasive odontogenic neoplasm believed to take origin from the stratum intermedium of the developing tooth germ. Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are multifunctional signaling molecules that regulate diverse cellular processes including epithelial-mesenchymal interactions during odontogenesis. Aberrant BMP activity has been enumerated in the ameloblastoma but information about its distribution in the CEOT remains limited. The aim here was to investigate BMP expression in CEOT and to speculate on its significance. Immunolabelling for BMP-2 and BMP-7 was performed on archival tissues of six CEOT cases and the level of expression was quantified as negative (0), mild (+), moderate (2+) and strong (3+). Results disclosed that CEOT epithelium demonstrated co-expression of BMP-2 and -7 suggesting upregulation of these proteins at sites of tumor differentiation. Distribution patterns were distinct with some overlap. Their localizations were largely membranous and/or cytoplasmic. Amyloid-like materials strongly expressed BMP-7 but were nonreactive for BMP-2, implicating that these signaling proteins play differential roles in the formation of these extracellular products. Mineralized substances including Liesegang rings were mostly negative for both BMPs suggesting that calcification process is associated with repression of these molecules. Stromal endothelium and fibroblasts were stained variably positive. BMP was heterogeneously detected in the CEOT epithelium at the tumor advancing front suggesting their upregulation at active sites and downregulation in quiescent areas. Present findings suggest that BMP-2 and BMP-7 most likely play differential roles in the cellular differentiation and progression of CEOT. BMP-7 accumulation within amyloid-like protein is a novel finding. © 2011 The Hard Tissue Biology Network Association.

Teeth are important structures for masticatory and phonetic purposes. Loss of teeth decreases these functions leading to impaired quality of life. Missing teeth replaced by tooth regeneration may be possible with emerging advances in stem cell biology and tissue engineering. Recent investigations have demonstrated that bone marrow derived cells (BMDC) can differentiate into cells other than blood cells. In the present study, the ability of BMDC to differentiate into tooth forming tissues was investigated using bone marrow transplantation model. BMDC from green fluorescent protein (GFP) transgenic mice were transplanted into 8-week old, C57BL/6 immunocompromised mice, which underwent 10-Gy whole body lethal irradiation. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed that bone marrow cells are positive to GFP, confirming successful bone marrow transplantation. Diffusedly GFP-positive cells were observed within the dental pulp of mouse incisor. GFP-positive cells in the dental pulp have arborescent processes resembling dendritic cell-like cells. Some odontoblast-like cells were also positive to GFP. Cells positive to GFP were observed in the cervical loop region and periodontal ligament. Langerhans cells in the oral epithelium, stromal fibroblasts, blood vessels and osteoclasts were also positive to GFP. These results indicate that BMDC have the ability to differentiate into tooth, bone and connective tissues. © 2011 The Hard Tissue Biology Network Association.

Quorum sensing (QS) refers to the phenomenon characterized by the accumulation of signaling molecules enabling a cell to sense a bacterial population triggering a coordinated response. Enterococcus faecalis is a resistant microorganism commonly found in oral infections. Salvadora persica has been traditionally used in Middle East countries to clean the teeth due to its antimicrobial activity. The study investigated the anti-quorum sensing (AQS) ability of S. persica extracts on E. faecalis. Extracts from the bark, leaves, root and shoots were tested against Chromobacterium violaceum. AQS ability was determined using differential scanning fluorimetry (DSF) and elastolytic assay to detect the level of protease and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (QPCR) to detect cytolysin (cylR1) and gelatinase (gelE) virulence factors. Preliminary disk diffusion assays revealed AQS activity by inhibiting violacein pigment production in C. violaceum without affecting its growth. Furthermore, only negligible amount of proteases was detected in DSF and elastolytic assays. CylR1 and gelE gene expression revealed no detectable signals even from the lowest possible threshold. The results indicate that S. persica has AQS ability against E. faecalis. S. persica extract can be used as alternative or in combination with other anti-microbial agents against infections caused by E. faecalis. © 2010 The Hard Tissue Biology Network Association.

Aneurysmal bone cysts (ABCs) are classified as bone-related lesions based on the 2005 World Health Organization histological classification of odontogenic tumors. Most ABCs are diagnosed using a combination of conventional radiography, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and digital subtraction angiography. ABCs should be differentiated from true cysts or other pseudocysts because their treatment is different. Additionally, unlike other cysts, ABCs pose a hemorrhagic risk in surgery; thus, preoperative evaluation of intralesional blood flow is required. Here we report a case of a mandibular ABC in a 39-year-old woman and focus on its dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) features. On DCE-MRI, the lesion was divided into two areas according to the enhancement pattern: the bloodpooling and blood-flow areas. The series of DCE-MR images of the blood-pooling area showed marked enhancement of the margin, but no enhancement in the inner part of the cavity. Additionally, the time-signal intensity curve (TIC) demonstrated no change in the signal intensity (SI) until approximately 15 min after gadoliniumdiethylenetriamine penta-acetic acid (Gd-DTPA) administration. In contrast, the series of DCE-MR images of the blood-flow area exhibited marked enhancement in the cyst cavity in the early phase. The TIC showed a rapid increase in SI in the early phase, followed by a rapid decrease until 150 s, and finally a gradual decrease until approximately 15 min after Gd-DTPA administration. Thus, in the current patient, preoperative DCE-MRI clearly delineated the vessel-rich area within the lesion. © Japanese Society for Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology and Springer 2010.

Mucinous adenocarcinoma (MAC) is a rare malignancy in the minor salivary gland. To our knowledge, genomic alterations in this tumor have not been reported previously. To identify DNA copy number aberrations, we applied comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) to four samples of MAC in minor salivary gland derived from two patients: a primary tumor and two cervical metastatic lymph nodes from one patient, and a primary tumor from the other patient. Copy number increases were commonly detected in 1q21∼q31 and 20q13, and these may play an important role in MAC carcinogenesis. Copy number increases in 1q, 12p, 12q, and 20q were commonly detected in all three samples derived from patient 1, and gain of 7p and loss of chromosome 4 were additionally detected in the two samples derived from metastatic lymph nodes. Amplifications were also detected in the chromosomal regions 8q22∼qter, 12p11∼p12, 12q11∼q21, and 20q13. Amplification of MDM2 (12q15) and of AURKA (20q13) was detected with fluorescence in situ hybridization. The DNA copy number aberrations detected in MAC in minor salivary glands were different from those reported for colorectal MAC. The present findings are novel in identifying genomic alterations of MAC arising from the minor salivary gland. © 2010 Elsevier Inc.

Our previous study showed high frequency of allelic loss at chromosome 2q37 region in oral cancer. This location contains several candidate tumor suppressor genes such as PPP1R7, ILKAP, DTYMK and ING5. We previously showed 3 members of inhibitor of growth (ING) family, ING1, ING3 and ING4 as tumor suppressor gene in head and neck cancer. As ING5 shows high homology with other members of ING genes including highly conserved carboxy-terminal plant homeodomain and nuclear localization signal, we first picked up ING5 and examined it as a possible tumor suppressor in oral cancer. For this aim, mutation and mRNA expression status of ING5 in paired normal and oral squamous cell carcinoma samples were examined by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and sequencing. Three missense mutations located within leucine zipper like (LZL) finger and novel conserved region (NCR) domains in ING5 protein were detected, probably abrogating its normal function. We also found 5 different alternative splicing variants of ING5. Then, we examined mRNA level of ING5 by quantitative real time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) analysis, which demonstrated decreased expression of ING5 mRNA in 61% of the primary tumors as compared to the matched normal samples. In conclusion, tumor-specific mutation and downregulation of ING5 mRNA suggested it as a tumor suppressor gene in oral squamous cell carcinoma. © 2010 UICC.
