[Observation on the immune function of
circulating red cells of patients with periodontal
diseases]
[Article in Chinese]

Medical University.
OBJECTIVE: To find out the relation between the causes of
periodontal diseases and the immune function of red blood
cells (RBC). METHODS: The functional state of SOD
activity, red blood cell C3b receptor rosstte (C3bR), red
cell immune complex rosstte (RBCICR), RBC immune adherence
enhance factor (RFER) and RBC immune adherence inhibitor
factor (RFIR) of red cells from the systemic circulation
of patients with periodontal diseases were determined and
compared with the normal control group. RESULTS: The SOD
activity C3bR and RFER of red cells were lower, while RFIR
and RBCICR were higher for patients with periodontal
diseases comparing to the normal control. CONCLUSION: It
indicates that the compromised function of red cells may
contribute to the initiation and development of
periodontal diseases.
