N2 - Using monoclonal antibodies reacting with T-cell subpopulations, Langerhans cells and macrophages, the number and distribution of cells of the immune system in normal oral and cervical mucosa was determined and statistically compared with that in oral papillomas and oral leukoplakias. Increased numbers of labelled cells were found in oral leukoplakias and particularly in oral papillomas. In the epithelium of all specimens, Langerhans cells and T-lymphocytes of the suppressor/cytotoxic phenotype as well as of the helper phenotype were seen. Suppressor/cytotoxic and helper T-lymphocytes were in equal numbers in the epithelium of oral papillomas, but were about 2:1 in all other lesions. In normal oral epithelium, macrophages were rare but were in greater numbers in leukoplakias and papillomas. In the connective tissue of all lesions, more labelled cells were present than in epithelium with T-lymphocytes predominant. Although Langerhans cells were rare in connective tissue, many were seen in oral papillomas.
