Analysis of the presence and location of mast cells in periapical cysts and periapical granulomas

Abstract: Objective The aim of the present study was to locate mast cells in chronic periapical lesions (granulomas and cysts) by using histochemical techniques and toluidine blue staining. Methods RESUMO ObjetivoLocalizar mastócitos em lesões periapicais (granulomas e cistos) através de técnicas histoquímicas e corante azul de toluidina. MétodosUma pesquisa quantitativa, descritiva, transversal e retrospectiva foi realizada. As amostras foram obtidas de documentos histopatológicos nos arquivos do laboratório de patolog… Show more

“…These results would explain the growth trend of the cysts as these cells account for the release of inflammatory mediators, such as tumour necrosis factor a (TNF-a), interleukin-1b (IL-1b), macrophage inflammatory protein-1a (MIP-1a) and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1). Mast cell degranulation may cause inflammatory and vascular changes, thus contributing to the development and expansion of the cysts [30][31][32].…”
