Expression of Odontogenic Ameloblast-Associated Protein (ODAM) in Dental and Other Epithelial Neoplasms

Abstract: We previously have communicated our discovery that the amyloid associated with calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumors is composed of N-terminal fragments of the structurally novel odontogenic ameloblast-associated protein designated ODAM. Subsequently, it was shown by other investigators that ODAM is expressed in rodent enamel organ and is likely involved in dental development. We now report that this molecule also is found in certain human tissues, principally the salivary gland and trachea, as evidenced by… Show more

“…Congo red staining for assessment of amyloid green birefringence under crossed polars was performed on the 4 instances of amyloid associated OdonF. Immunoperoxidase staining for odontogenic ameloblast-associated protein (ODAM) was conducted in Dr. Alan Solomon's laboratory (University of Tennessee Center for Health Sciences, Department of Medicine) employing an antibody against ODAM protein, as previously described [3][4][5][6].…”

“…The presence of an amyloid-like protein deposit adjacent to epithelial elements in developing tooth germs is well documented by Congo red staining and demonstration of green birefringence under polarized light [3][4][5][6]. Biochemical analysis has been undertaken and this protein is referred to as ODAM (odontogenic ameloblast-associated protein).…”

“…Both are expressed mainly in the tooth where they are localized at cell-tooth interfaces (Moffatt et al 2006b(Moffatt et al , 2008Nishio et al 2010;Iwasaki et al 2005;Park et al 2007;SomogyiGanss et al 2011). ODAM was also shown to be highly expressed in some epithelial malignancies but not in corresponding healthy tissues Kestler et al 2008;Siddiqui et al 2009). ODAM and AMTN proteins are encoded by two genes that are members of the secretory calcium-binding phosphoprotein (SCPP) gene cluster (Moffatt et al 2006a).…”

“…Further studies using gene knockout models may help in validating this hypothesis. Odam expression has been found in many kinds of tumours although its precise role in tumour progression is not clear (Kestler et al, 2008;Lee et al, 2010b). However, its role in regulating the expression of MMP-20, a matrix metalloproteinase involved in teeth mineralisation, has been proven (Lee et al, 2010a).…”
