MICROSCOPIC FEATURES OF BUCCAL EPITHELIUM IN SMOKING STUDENTS OF INDO-DRAVIDIAN RACE (BY E. HOOTON)

We have studied the microscopic features of buccal epithelium in smoking students of Indo-Dravidian race. In the epithelial cells of the mucous cheek surface of smoking students we revealed the scored nuclei with tongue- and broken egg-type protrusions, micronuclei, cellular dimorphism, binuclear cells, as well as a significant decrease in nuclear-cytoplasmic ratio, as compared to the control, which may indicate the presence of local inflammation resulting from the toxic effects of smoking products on the oral mucosa.
