HISTOLOGICAL FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION EPITHELIUM OF GINGIVAL FURROW

Abstract

Privacy protection mechanisms provided periodontal epithelial homeostasis gum gum grooves and liquid components which are actively involved in phagocytosis and protect tissues under conditions of microbial exposure, acting as a link in the cascade of immune pathogenetic mechanisms. The aim of our study was to determine the characteristics histofuktsionalnoyi gum sulcus epithelium. As evidenced by the results of our research in the epithelium of the gum sulcus can operate intraepithelial local level defense structures : Intraepithelial provided independent secretory and phagocytic function of neutrophils migrating, and creates a "first line of defense" periodontal tissues under the influence of microbial parodontopatohennnoho factor. Having reduced the level of local protection epithelium gum sulcus, under physiological conditions helps to maintain homeostasis and epithelial components, in the languages of the pathological process in the periodontal tissues enables functional isolation stomatohennoho foci of chronic infection and intoxication and prevent the development of diseases associated with systemic inflammation. Results given in this paper extend and add presented data about ultrastructural features of gingival sulcus and give the opportunity to be the first target of antigen influence of microbial factors and their toxins at the beginning stage of the inflammatory process in periodontal tissues, cause this is the special type of epithelium with specific cytotopographic relationship of epitheliocytes and certain organization.
