Comparative transcriptional profiling of canine acanthomatous ameloblastoma and homology with human ameloblastoma

Abstract Ameloblastomas are odontogenic tumors that are rare in people but have a relatively high prevalence in dogs. Because canine acanthomatous ameloblastomas (CAA) have clinicopathologic and molecular features in common with human ameloblastomas (AM), spontaneous CAA can serve as a useful transl...
