Chemotactic activities in gingival tissue extract from patients with periodontal disease were examined by the method of modified Boyden chamber technique, and compared with pocket depth(mm) measured by pocket marker. Statistically significant correlations were shown between chemotactic activities and pocket depth, while no significant correlation was shown in the chmotactic activity between the gingiva with pus discharge and the gingiva without pus discharge.
In generally, high chemotactic activities were shown in the inflammatory granulomatous tissues.
