Resumo
Attempts were made to study possible effects of the periodontal disease cara inchada (CI) on the cellular immunity of cattle, using adherence-, chemotaxis- and ph-agocytosis-determinations. Adherence of Bacteroides melaninogenicus to bovine granulocytes was significantly decreased in animals with CI. Phagacytosis of B. melaninogenicus by polymorphonuclear granulocytes (PMN) was also decreased in CI-diseased animals. Chemotaxis of the granulocytes appeared to be slightly increased in animals with CI and animals without CI coming from CI-affected herds.
