Epithelial regulation by regionally defined populations of oral fibroblasts
The four individual phenotypic cell populations persisted in culture. On recombination into the organotypic system there were marked growth variations that may be attributable to diverse cytokine/receptor levels involved in epithelial-mesenchymal interactions.

| Summary: | The four individual phenotypic cell populations persisted in culture. On recombination into the organotypic system there were marked growth variations that may be attributable to diverse cytokine/receptor levels involved in epithelial-mesenchymal interactions. Such varying cytokine levels may represent intrinsic differences in sub-sets of the population that are at greater or lesser risk of developing periodontal disease. |
