GLI1 and adenomatoid odontogenic tumor: The present study analyzed the expression of proteins involved in the sonic hedgehog signaling pathway (SHH, SMO, and GLI-1) in benign epithelial odontogenic lesions (odontogenic keratocyst - OKC, ameloblastoma - AB, and adenomatoid odontogenic tumor - AOT) in order to identify the role of these proteins in the pathogenesis of these lesions.
