The granular cell tumour (myoblastoma, Abrikosoff's tumour) and the congenital epulis in newborns (Neumann tumour) are two lesions rarely found in the oral cavity, whose histogenetic origin is highly controversial. This work analyses using immunohistochemical techniques 15 cases of myoblastomas and two of congenital epulis with different mono- and poly-clonal antibodies. Positive immunostaining was found for S-100 protein and neuron-specific enolase in all the cases of myoblastoma, and for vimentin and carcinoembryonic antigen in some cases. No immunoreactivity was observed for any of the other 13 antibodies used in congenital epulis.

D007633 Keratins A class of fibrous proteins or scleroproteins that represents the principal constituent of EPIDERMIS; HAIR; NAILS; horny tissues, and the organic matrix of tooth ENAMEL. Two major conformational groups have been characterized, alpha-keratin, whose peptide backbone forms a coiled-coil alpha helical structure consisting of TYPE I KERATIN and a TYPE II KERATIN, and beta-keratin, whose backbone forms a zigzag or pleated sheet structure. alpha-Keratins have been classified into at least 20 subtypes. In addition multiple isoforms of subtypes have been found which may be due to GENE DUPLICATION.

D009418 S100 Proteins A family of highly acidic calcium-binding proteins found in large concentration in the brain and believed to be glial in origin. They are also found in other organs in the body. They have in common the EF-hand motif (EF HAND MOTIFS) found on a number of calcium binding proteins. The name of this family derives from the property of being soluble in a 100% saturated ammonium sulfate solution.
