Abstract
Objective: To review current knowledge of the various processes of programmed cell death and their roles in immunoregulation in periodontitis.
Methods: Relevant literature in the PubMed, Medline, and Scopus databases was searched, and a narrative review was performed. Programmed cell death and the regulation of its various pathways implicated in periodontal infection were reviewed.
Results: Multicellular organisms dispose of unnecessary or damaged cells via programmed cell death. Programmed cell death lies at the core of the balance of cell death and survival in pathological progress and infection. Periodontitis is a complex infectious disease involving virulence factors of periodontal pathogens and tightly regulated immune responses of the host. Different types of programmed cell death can play opposite roles in periodontitis or exert their action combinatorially.
Conclusion: The coordinated system of various programmed cell death pathways and the extensive crosstalk among them play a fundamental role in the pathophysiology of periodontitis. Illuminating the precise roles and mechanisms of programmed cell death in periodontitis could open up novel therapeutic approaches.
期刊介绍:
Oral Diseases is a multidisciplinary and international journal with a focus on head and neck disorders, edited by leaders in the field, Professor Giovanni Lodi (Editor-in-Chief, Milan, Italy), Professor Stefano Petti (Deputy Editor, Rome, Italy) and Associate Professor Gulshan Sunavala-Dossabhoy (Deputy Editor, Shreveport, LA, USA). The journal is pre-eminent in oral medicine. Oral Diseases specifically strives to link often-isolated areas of dentistry and medicine through broad-based scholarship that includes well-designed and controlled clinical research, analytical epidemiology, and the translation of basic science in pre-clinical studies. The journal typically publishes articles relevant to many related medical specialties including especially dermatology, gastroenterology, hematology, immunology, infectious diseases, neuropsychiatry, oncology and otolaryngology. The essential requirement is that all submitted research is hypothesis-driven, with significant positive and negative results both welcomed. Equal publication emphasis is placed on etiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis, prevention and treatment.
