Non-Inflammatory Destructive Periodontal Disease
BACKGROUND Non-Inflammatory Destructive Periodontal Disease (NIDPD), is a severe destructive periodontal disease, that is characterized by the attachment loss and alveolar bone loss, without signs of the gingival inflammation, and the periodontal pocket development. OBJECTIVE Despite the fact that various cases of NIDPD have been reported; their etiology and disease evolution is still indefin...
متن کاملChronic Inflammation and Carcinogenesis - Emerging Role of Chronic Inflammatory Periodontal Disease
With exponential increase in the number of cases of cancers worldwide in recent past, it is imperative to enhance our understanding about the etiologic and risk factors associated with this seriously morbid condition. Increasing attention has been focussed on chronic infections and inflammatory diseases, implicating a role in carcinogenesis, particularly in developing countries. Periodontal dis...
متن کاملImmunohistochemical evaluation of the inflammatory response in periodontal disease.
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+ cell...
متن کاملInflammatory Cytokines and the Pathogenesis of Periodontal Disease
Periodontal inflammation which begins as an acute inflammatory response after host-bacterial interaction, progresses into a chronic stage dominated by B lymphocytes and macrophages, following intense T lymphocytes stage [3]. Transition between these stages, accumulation and differentiation of immune cells in the inflammatory site are mediated by “cytokines.” Cytokines are soluble mediators cont...
متن کاملImmunopathology of Chagas disease.
The main clinical forms of Chagas disease (acute, indeterminate and chronic cardiac) present strong evidences for the participation of the immune system on pathogenesis. Although parasite multiplication is evident during acute infection, the intense acute myocarditis of this phase exhibits clear ultrastructural signs of cell-mediated immune damage, inflicted to parasitized and non-parasitized m...
