Transfer mechanism of energy by anti-inflammatory and antioxidant molecules absorved by cell membranes receptors of oral mucosa. Hypotesis. Av Odontoestomatol [online]. 2016, vol.32, n.1, pp.35-44.

Previously, a synthesis is presented about structural and molecular characteristics of human cell´s membranes and cell´s walls of medicinal plants. This analyses support an hypothesis about the relationships between both of them. The purpose is to establish the possibility of using it, as local treatment on irritations, burns, abrasions, small ulcers, acute bullous allergic reaction, gums illness and fungal infections of oral mucosa. Cell wall proteins (CWP) are glycosided proteins and polysaccharides, proteasas and lectins. They have been described as being extracellular. About 90% of CWP are capable to realize biochemical and biological functions. Anti-inflammatory activity and inhibition of arachidonic acid metabolism by flavonoids, isolated from medicinal plants have been studied. Clinical investigations suggest that medicinal plants accelerate wound healing because they increase collagen and proteoglycan syntesis promoting tissue repair.

Keywords : Medicinal plants; human oral mucosa; cell-cell wall plants; arachidonic acid; flavonoids.
