Project description:Chronic apical periodontitis, typified by inflammatory granulation tissue formation and alveolar bone destruction, is the immune response around the apical root caused by long-term infection and pathogenic stimulation in the root canal. Through the recruitment and infiltration of immune cells and inflammatory mediators, wound healing begins accompanied by the starting of infection. Hence, a comprehensive understanding of biological processes and disease development from the cellular microenvironment in inflammatory periapical areas has important implications.
