Popis: | In order to contribute to the knowledge of the pathogenesis of periodontal disease, an immunohistochemical analysis of the density of inflammatory mononucleated cells and the number of dendritic cells was performed using anti-CD4, anti-CD20, anti-CD25, anti-CD68 and anti-protein S-100 antibodies in 17 cases of chronic gingivitis (CG) and 25 of chronic periodontitis (CP). The CD4+ and CD68+ cells exhibited a diffuse distribution in the connective tissue. CD20+ cell distribution was predominantly in groups and the CD25+ cells exhibited a diffuse or focal distribution. The S-100+ cells were identified in the epithelium and the lamina propria, exhibiting distinct morphology and number. The statistical analysis showed no significant differences (p>0.05) between CG and CP regarding the density of the CD4+ and CD20+ cells and the number of S-100+ cells. However, significant differences (p |
