title: [Physiological aspects of apoptosis].
abstract: Study of apoptosis is a new stage in development of biomedical sciences. At the cellular level the process is realised on account of efferents supporting an equilibrium among proliferation, differentiation, and programmed cell death. Significance of each of the factors is determined by its role in physiological systems functioning. Cell death infringement may cause pathological conditions and diseases followed by both degenerative and proliferative changes.
