| Popis: | Lymphocyte transformation induced by Formocresol-treated and untreated extracts of homologous pulp tissue was evaluated in groups of children who differed in past experience with Formocresol pulpotomies. Significant transformation responses were observed in studies of 25 of the 40 children. Neither the ability to respond nor the level of lymphocyte response to the pulp extracts was related to a clinical history of Formocresol pulpotomy. Sensitization to pulp-related antigens was a common finding in this study and was moderately well correlated with indexes of past and current dental disease. |
