MAST CELLS IN PERIODONT PERIODONTAL DISEASE DISEASE

Praxis medica, 2007
<p>Periodontal disease is a chronic inflammatory disease that is largely attributable to infections with gram-negative bacteria and is characterised by both gingival inflammation and alveolar bone resorption. Beside macrophages, the second most common cells of the gingival inflammatory infiltrat are mast cells. Mast cells are heterogenous
