The aim was to study the metabolic and proliferative activity of the components of ameloblastoma of mixed histological structure. To assess the impact of individual components of mixed variants of ameloblastoma on treatment results and the risk of relapse. The study included 21 histological specimens of mixed ameloblastoma. To study proliferative and metabolic activity, histological preparations were immunohistochemically stained. To assess the proliferation of tumor components, histological preparations were stained for the presence of antigens to Ki-67, and the level of metabolic activity was assessed by the expression level of the glucose transporter GLUT-1. Statistical analysis was performed using the Mann-Whitney test, statistical significance was determined using the Chi-square test, and correlation analysis was performed using Spearman's. Among the samples of mixed ameloblastoma included in the study, a non-uniform distribution of proliferation and intensity of metabolic activity among the components was obtained. So, among all the components, the plexiform and basal cell variants are distinguished by the greatest proliferative activity. The metabolic activity of these components of mixed ameloblastoma is also increased. The data obtained allow us to conclude that it is necessary to take into account plexiform and basal cell components of mixed ameloblastoma, as this can affect the effectiveness of treatment and the risk of relapse.
