Introdução: Grande parte das doenças periodontais possuem etiologia de caráter infecciosa frequentemente relacionadas às bactérias periodontopatogênicas. O sistema imunológico age contra essas patologias periodontais de origem microbiota. No entanto, sua ação depende da severidade da doença, podendo desencadeando uma estimulação complexa entre a imunidade inata e adquirida do indivíduo. Objetivo: Abordar acerca da influência do sistema imunológico frente as doenças que afetam o periodonto. Metodologia: O presente trabalho trata-se de uma revisão de literatura narrativa, na qual foram feitas pesquisas por artigos científicos disponíveis nas bases de dados indexadas pela Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (BVS), vale destacar que os trabalhos selecionados tiveram como critérios de inclusão: texto completo, gratuito e disponibilidade no idioma português. Resultados: A participação do sistema imune nas desordens e patologias periodontais está relacionado coma a severidade da doença, tendo o envolvimento da resposta imune inata correspondendo a primeira linha de defesa do organismo, onde mecanismos efetores são ativados de forma rápida, enquanto a imunidade adquirida, por sua vez, apresenta ação tardia, sendo mais específica, dividindo-se em celular e humoral. Na resposta inata cita-se as principais células de defesa que respondem a agressão tecidual: células de Langerhans cd83+ da mucosa oral; macrófagos teciduais; neutrófilos; células dendríticas da lâmina própria gengival ou periodontal e células mesenquimais, na imunidade humoral destaca-se a participação das hemoglobinas, observando-se um aumento na produção de imunoglobulinas da classe G (igG), que está relacionado com a presença de antígenos bacterianos. Considerações finais: O estudo concluiu que nos casos de longas exposições aos patógenos periodontais o sistema imune é ativado dispondo de células de defesa que respondem a agressão tecidual.

That the etiology of Whipple's disease could be bacterial was first suggested from electron micrographs in 1960. Evidence for binary fission of the bacteria, their phagocytosis by histiocytes in the lamina propria, their occurrence between and within the cells of the epithelium and on the brush border of the lumen were reported later. Scanning electron microscopy has been applied by us in an attempt to confirm the earlier observations by the new technique and to describe the bacterium further. Both transmission and scanning electron microscopy have been used concurrently to study the same biopsy specimens, and transmission observations have been used to confirm those made by scanning.The locations of the brush borders, the columnar epithelial cells, the basement membrane and the lamina propria beneath it were each easily identified by scanning electron microscopy. The lamina propria was completely filled with the wiener-shaped bacteria, Fig. 1.

Trichinella spiralis induces a profound mastocytosis and eosinophilia in the small intestine of the infected mouse. Mouse mast cells (MC) store in their granules various combinations of at least five chymotryptic chymases [designated mouse MC protease (mMCP) 1 to 5], two tryptic proteases designated mMCP-6 and mMCP-7 and an exopeptidase, carboxypeptidase A (mMC-CPA). Using antipeptide, protease -specific antibodies to these MC granule proteases, immunohistochemistry was done to determine the distribution, number and protease phenotype of the MCs in the small intestine and spleen 10 to >60 days after Trichinella infection of BALB/c and C3H mice. TEM was performed to evaluate the granule morphology of the MCs between intestinal epithelial cells and in the lamina propria (mucosal MCs) and in the submucosa, muscle and serosa of the intestine (submucosal MCs).As noted in the table below, the number of submucosal MCs remained constant throughout the study. In contrast, on day 14, the number of MCs in the mucosa increased ~25 fold. Increased numbers of MCs were observed between epithelial cells in the mucosal crypts, in the lamina propria and to a lesser extent, between epithelial cells of the intestinal villi.

Gastritis from returning bile is a common disease, but the reason for the disease is not clear. As the pathologic ultrastructure research progresses, it has drawn attention to the ultrastructural change of cells in gastric mucosa by clinical workers. We observed gastric mucosa tissues of 15 patients suffering from gastritis with a transmission electron microscope (TEM) and a scanning electron microscope (SEM). It is the first report in China that fungus exists in the lamina propria of gastric mucosa tissue. The result is as follows.The gastric mucosa tissues of 15 patients suffering from gastritis were acquired by stomachoscopy. Both TEM and SEM specimens were prepared by the usual methods. Under the TEM, the epithelial surface became higher and larger. Mitochondria of the cells were swollen and cristae were disrupted. There were vacuoles in the cells. The nucleus showed disorder, heterochromatin became darker, and nucleolae could be observed.

Salmonella enteritidis (SE) is of great concern to the poultry industry due to the organism's ability to penetrate the intestinal mucosa of the laying hen and subsequently colonize the ovaries and yolk membrane. The resultant subclinical infection can lead to SE infection of raw eggs and egg products. Interference with the ability of the organism to invade has been linked to the activation and recruitment of inflammatory polymorphonuclear cells, heterophils, to the lamina propria of the intestinal tract.Recently it has been established that heterophil activation and increased resistance to SE organ invasion can be accomplished by the administration of SE-immune lymphokines (SE-ILK) obtained from supernatants of concanavalin-A stimulated SE immune T lymphocytes from SE hyperimmunized hens. Invasion of SE into the lamina propria provides a secondary signal for directing activated heterophils to the site of SE invasion.

Der Morbus Whipple ist eine seltene, ohne antibiotische Therapie tödlich verlaufende infektiöse Systemerkrankung durch das ubiquitär vorkommende, grampositive Bakterium Tropheryma whipplei. Der Erreger kann lichtoptisch, elektronenmikroskopisch und mittels PCR in betroffenen Geweben und Körperflüssigkeiten nachgewiesen werden. Betroffen sind vor allem Männer. Die meisten Patienten klagen über Gewichtsverlust, Diarrhoen, Abdominalschmerzen und Arthralgien. In 10–40% der Fälle ist auch das Zentralnervensystem, oft asymptomatisch, mitbeteiligt. Der Nachweis PAS-positiver Makrophagen in der Lamina propria des Dünndarms ist typisch aber nicht pathognomonisch für den Morbus Whipple. Der Erregernachweis sollte heute auch mittels PCR angestrebt werden. Die Behandlung mit liquorgängigen Antibiotika erfolgt meist als Sequenztherapie über mindestens ein Jahr, um Rezidive zu vermeiden. Vor Abschluss der Therapie ist der Nachweis der Erregerfreiheit im Darm und vermutlich auch im Liquor zu fordern.

Background & Aims: Evaluation of severity and extension of gastric atrophy and intestinal metaplasia is recommended to identify subjects with a high risk for gastric cancer. The inter-observer agreement for the assessment of gastric atrophy is reported to be low. The aim of the study was to evaluate the inter-observer agreement for the assessment of severity and extension of gastric atrophy using oriented and unoriented gastric biopsy samples. Furthermore, the quality of biopsy specimens in oriented and unoriented samples was analyzed.Methods: A total of 35 subjects with dyspeptic symptoms addressed for gastrointestinal endoscopy that agreed to enter the study were prospectively enrolled. The OLGA/OLGIM gastric biopsies protocol was used. From each subject two sets of biopsies were obtained (four from the antrum, two oriented and two unoriented, two from the gastric incisure, one oriented and one unoriented, four from the gastric body, two oriented and two unoriented). The orientation of the biopsy samples was completed using nitrocellulose filters (Endokit®, BioOptica, Milan, Italy). The samples were blindly examined by two experienced pathologists. Inter-observer agreement was evaluated using kappa statistic for inter-rater agreement. The quality of histopathology specimens taking into account the identification of lamina propria was analyzed in oriented vs. unoriented samples. The samples with detectable lamina propria mucosae were defined as good quality specimens. Categorical data was analyzed using chi-square test and a two-sided p value <0.05 was considered statistically significant.Results: A total of 350 biopsy samples were analyzed (175 oriented / 175 unoriented). The kappa index values for oriented/unoriented OLGA 0/I/II/III and IV stages have been 0.62/0.13, 0.70/0.20, 0.61/0.06, 0.62/0.46, and 0.77/0.50, respectively. For OLGIM 0/I/II/III stages the kappa index values for oriented/unoriented samples were 0.83/0.83, 0.88/0.89, 0.70/0.88 and 0.83/1, respectively. No case of OLGIM IV stage was found in the present case series. Good quality histopathology specimens were described in 95.43% of the oriented biopsy samples, and in 89.14% of the unoriented biopsy samples, respectively (p=0.0275).Conclusion: The orientation of gastric biopsies specimens improves the inter-observer agreement for the assessment of gastric atrophy.Key words:  –  –  – .Abbreviations: H. pylori: Helicobacter pylori; OLGA: operative link for gastritis assessment; OLGIM: operative link on intestinal metaplasia assessment.
