title: [Inhibition of the immune response due to the volatile fatty acids produced by anaerobic bacteria in the periodontal pocket].
abstract: Short-chain fatty acids produced by anaerobic bacteria of the periodontal pockets inhibit lymphocytes activation. The highest degrees of immunosuppressive activity is produced by butyric acid.
