Key Points

The research aims to investigate the role of invadopodia-associated proteins in different subtypes of unicystic ameloblastoma and how hypoxia affects their behavior.
Examined immunohistochemical expression of specific proteins in various ameloblastoma subtypes.
Compared the invasive capacity of MUA, LUA, and IUA under hypoxic conditions.
Utilized histological techniques to assess protein expression levels.
MUA shows significantly higher invadopodia-associated protein expression compared to LUA and IUA.
Hypoxia correlates with increased invasive potential in MUA.
Findings indicate a potential mechanism for aggressive behavior in ameloblastoma subtypes.

Shows hypoxia enhances invasive capacity in unicystic ameloblastoma subtypes, suggesting more aggressive behavior.
