[Neutrophil functional activity in rats with parodontal inflammatory process at the background of reduced thyroid
Abstract:
Influence of reduced thyroid gland function upon peripheral blood neutrophil functional activity in Wistar rats with acute mechanical trauma of gingival was studied. Thyroid insufficiency was simulated by daily intraoral Mercazole administration in the doze of 25 mg/kg during 21 days. The parodontal inflammatory process in rats with reduced thyroid gland function was characterized by reduced indicators of spontaneous and induced HCT-tests, by lower activity of posttraumatic inflammatory purulent processes in comparison with animals with euthyroid status.
