[The role of caspases in the apoptosis process].
Activation of caspases is the key event during apoptosis. Abnormalities of this phenomenon play an important role in the pathogenesis of several disorders and may have important clinical implications, including the development of novel therapeutic strategies. Currently, these problems are extensively investigated in several experimental and clinical studies.
