Effects of pectin polysaccharides on leukocyte migration into the oral cavity during exercise.
The effects of pectin polysaccharides on leukocyte migration into the oral cavity during exercise were studied. The migration and hence, counts of neutrophils in the oral cavity increased during exercise. Pectins reduced neutrophil migration into the oral cavity during exercise because of hyperstimulation of their functional activity.
