解整合素样-金属蛋白酶8和12在颌骨巨细胞病变组织中表达的研究

目的 检测解整合素样-金属蛋白酶(ADAM)8和12在颌骨巨细胞病变中的表达,探讨它们在颌骨巨细胞病变细胞发生中的作用。方法 采用免疫组织化学的方法检测40例颌骨中心性巨细胞病变,10例颌骨周围性巨细胞病变,9例巨颌症,6例颌骨动脉瘤性骨囊肿石蜡组织中的ADAM8、ADAM12的基因表达。结果 颌骨中心性巨细胞病变、颌骨周围性巨细胞肉芽肿、巨颌症、颌骨动脉瘤性骨囊肿中的几乎所有多核巨细胞和部分圆形单核基质细胞均为ADAM8、ADAM12阳性;颌骨中心性和周围性巨细胞病变中部分短梭形的细胞ADAM12阳性。结论 颌骨巨细胞病变中的多核破骨样细胞可能由圆形单核基质细胞融合而成,而ADAM8、ADAM12参与了此融合过程,同时,ADAM12可能还参与了病变中梭形单核基质细胞的成熟过程。

Expression of a disintegrin-like and metalloproteinase protein 8 and 12 in the giant cell lesions of jaw

Objective To detect the expression of a disintegrin-like and metalloproteinase (ADAM) 8 and 12 gene in the giant cell lesions of jaw and to study their effects on the histogenesis of cells in these lesions. Methods ADAMS and ADAM12 was detected by immunohistochemistry(SP) in 40 paraffin-embedded specimens of central giant cell lesions of jaw, 10 peripheral giant cell lesions, 9 cherubisms, 6 aneurysmal bone cysts. Results ADAM8 and ADAM12 were positive in the cytomembrane and cytoplasm of all multinucleated giant cells and some round mononuclear cells of the lesions; ADAM12 was positive for some spindle mononuclear stromal cells in central and peripheral giant cell lesions. Conclusions Multinucleated giant cells probably originated from the fusion of the round mononuclear cells, and ADAM8 and ADAM12 were involved in this process. In addition, ADAM12 might play a role in the maturation of spindle mononuclear stromal cells.
