pubmed:abstractText |
HIV-seropositive (HIV+) patients become increasingly susceptible to periodontal diseases as HIV infection proceeds. We have previously shown that HIV+ patients with chronic marginal periodontitis (CMP) have remarkably increased numbers of gingival plasma cells in the connective tissue underlying the oral gingival epithelium, but depressed specific serum IgG levels towards periodontopathogenic bacteria. Langerhans cells (LC) and keratinocytes (KC) are antigen-presenting cells that are important in promoting immune responses.
