Apoptotic factors in physiological and pathological processes of teeth and periodontal tissues – literature review
Journal Title: Current Issues in Pharmacy and Medical Sciences - Year 2014, Vol 27, Issue 4
Abstract
Apoptosis is a physiological process that occurs in the human body throughout the entire life span. This process can be seen in the tissues of the stomatognathic system. A disorder in such programmed cell death processes leads to the development of pathological lesions. Among these are inflammation, osteolytic lesions and neoplastic hyperplasia. We put forward that future studies should concentrate on how to use the knowledge of apoptotic processes and their inhibitors in therapeutic processes involving the stomatognathic system.
