| Popis: | Periodontitis is one of the chronic diseases that have the greatest impact on human health, and it is associated with several other chronic diseases. Tissue damage associated with periodontitis is often connected with immune response. Immune cells are a crucial component of the human immune system and are directly involved in periodontitis during the inflammatory phase of the disease. Macrophages, as a key component of the immune system, are responsible for defence, antigen presentation and phagocytosis in healthy tissue. They are also closely linked to the development and resolution of periodontitis, through mechanisms such as macrophage polarization, pattern recognition receptors recognition, efferocytosis, and Specialized Pro-resolving Mediators (SPMs) production. Additionally, apoptosis and autophagy are also known to play a role in the recovery of periodontitis. This review aims to investigate the aforementioned mechanisms in more detail and identify novel therapeutic approaches for periodontitis. |
