Abstrakt: Background: This study aimed to investigate the differentiation of ameloblastic-like cells and the nature of the secreted eosinophilic materials in adenomatoid odontogenic tumors.
Methods: We studied histological and immunohistochemical characteristics of 20 cases using: cytokeratins 14 and 19, amelogenin, collagen I, laminin, vimentin, and CD34.
Results: Rosette cells differentiated into ameloblastic-like cells positioned face-to-face, displaying collagen I-positive material between them. Epithelial cells of the rosettes can differentiate into ameloblastic-like cells. This phenomenon probably occurs due to an induction phenomenon between these cells. The secretion of collagen I is probably a brief event. Amelogenin-positive areas were interspersed by epithelial cells in the lace-like areas, outside the rosettes and distant from the ameloblastic-like cells.
Conclusions: There are at least two types of eosinophilic material in different areas within the tumor, one in the rosette and solid areas and another in lace-like areas. The secreted eosinophilic material in the rosettes and solid areas is probably a product of well-differentiated ameloblastic-like cells. It is positive for collagen I and negative for amelogenin, whereas some eosinophilic materials in the lace-like areas are positive for amelogenin. We hypothesize that the latter eosinophilic material could be a product of odontogenic cuboidal epithelial or intermediate stratum-like epithelial cells.
