Description
Neeharika Soorneedi and co-authors count mast cells in mouth tissue to clarify two look-alike conditions, in a 2024 study. Oral lichen planus and lichenoid reactions both leave sore, patterned patches. Their causes differ, so telling them apart matters. Mast cells, which drive allergic-style responses, may play a part in each.
Archived tissue covered forty cases of each condition plus twenty healthy samples. Two stains highlighted the cells for counting. The first condition averaged about fifteen mast cells per field, far above the second's nine and the healthy tissue's two. The gap was statistically strong. A simple cell count could support diagnosis where the microscope picture alone stays ambiguous.
