title: [The role of cellular immunity in gingival inflammation through a study of the cells of Langerhans].
abstract: The purpose of this semiquantitative study was to evaluate the number of Langerhans cells in correlation with gingival inflammation and the use of two antisera: anti-T6 and anti-HLA/DR reacting with two different membrane antigens. Results indicate that HLA/DR is a better functional marker, and that the number of Langerhans cells is higher in the moderate inflammation of the gingiva (G.I. 1 to 2).
