At the gingiva there are two cellular populations with mediation capacity in the immunoregulation, whose mechanisms seen to be implicated in the pathogenesis of the periodontal disease. One of these populations is formed by the macrophages and the other one by the Langerhans cells belonging to the epithelia. In this paper wr are demonstrating that both populations keep an inverse proportional relation in the two sides of gingival epithelium. In the oral side, the Langerhans cells are predomiating, while in the periodontal pocket they are in small number, in comparison with the macrophages, which are highly abundant and forming a subepithelial band.
在牙龈处有两种具有免疫调节介导能力的细胞群体，其机制似乎与牙周病的发病机制有关。其中一种群体由巨噬细胞组成，另一种由上皮组织中的朗格汉斯细胞组成。在本文中，我们证明这两种群体在牙龈上皮的两侧保持反比例关系。在口腔侧，朗格汉斯细胞占主导，而在牙周袋中，与大量存在并形成上皮下带的巨噬细胞相比，朗格汉斯细胞数量较少。
