Ectodermal and ectomesenchymal marker expression in primary cell lines of complex and compound odontomas: a pilot study.

CONCLUSIONS: The results suggested heterogeneous behavior for both odontoma cell lines, because in compound odontomas predominant biomarkers are related to the enamel knot, late-stage odontogenesis and ectomesenchymal interactions; and in complex odontoma the significant expression of CD34 and OPN could be responsible for the difference behavior and mineralized amorphous structure.
