Gingival Overgrowth in Pompe Disease: A Case Report

The active role of gingival proteoglycans in periodontal disease

Medical Hypotheses, 1983
The quantitatively major extracellular non-fibrous macromolecules of human gingivae are the proteoglycans. This class of macromolecules have been considered to be paramount in maintaining many tissue functions and are therefore presumably of prime importance in regulating the physiology of the gingivae which in turn regulates its structural integrity ...
