An in-vitro comparison of human fibroblasts from normal and oral submucous fibrosis tissue.

Fibroblasts cultured in vitro from normal buccal tissue and from tissue from oral submucous fibrosis (OSF) associated with betel-nut chewing showed no significant difference in their rates of proliferation in culture, nor in the rate at which they hydrolysed the betel nut alkaloid arecoline to arecaidine. Basal rates of collagen synthesis were slightly higher in the OSF cells but, on addition of arecoline, the rate of collagen synthesis in normal and OSF cells was stimulated to the same level.[1]
