A pre-requisite for the molecular interplay of oncogenesis by EBV is the expression of the EBV receptor on the target cell of the host. As a possible contribution to this concept, we adopted immunohistochemical technique to examine a hyperplastic gingival tissue obtained from a subject on kidney allotransplant immunosuppressed with cyclosporin A (CSA). Our results demonstrate expression of EBV/C3d receptor on the superficial layers of the hyperplastic gingiva but absent in the basal/parabasal layers. It is suggested that the superficial layer expression of EBV/C3d receptor could be due to direct acquisition from the environment of the oral cavity rather than a systemic extension from the deep layers of the same epithelium.</p>","PeriodicalId":76983,"journal":{"name":"African dental journal : official publication of the Federation of African Dental Associations = Journal dentaire africain","volume":"9 ","pages":"20-4"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"20512594","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
