Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: We sought to investigate the expression of cells with immunosuppressive/protumorigenic phenotypes in oral lichen planus (OLP), such as M2-tumor-associated macrophages (TAM2), myeloid-derived suppressive cells (MDSCs), and regulatory T cells (Tregs) in association with clinical parameters. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Cases of hyperkeratotic (HK)-OLP (n = 23) and erosive (E)-OLP (n = 26) were...
