Presence of Myofibroblasts and Matrix Metalloproteinase 2 in Radicular Cysts, Dentigerous Cysts, and Keratocystic Odontogenic Tumors: A Comparative Immunohistochemical Study

Myofibroblasts and MMP-2 are frequent in RCs, DCs, and KOTs and eventually can contribute to bone resorption, favoring the progression and growth of these lesions.
