Evaluation of MinichromosomeMaintenance-3 (MCM3) in Erosive Oral lichen planus (An immunohistochemical study)

Document Type : Original Article

Abstract

The present study evaluated the immunoexpression of MCM3 in oral erosive lichen planus. Ten patients having erosive oral lichen planus (EOLP) and ten normal mucosa from patients undergoing minor oral surgery were subjected to immunohistochemical analysis to evaluate MCM3 expression. All EOLP showed positivity for MCM3. The amount of positive cells increased as the grade of dysplasia increased.
