title: S-100 protein localization in human adult dental pulp.
abstract: The pulp of third molar teeth was examined by immunofluorescence and immunoperoxidase using a specific antibody to detect S-100 protein-labelled cells. There was a strong positive reaction in macrophages and in Schwann cells ensheathing axons. The other cells within the pulp were negative.
