Mechanisms involved in tissue-specific apopotosis regulated by glucocorticoids

Physiological cell turnover is under the control of a sharp and dynamic balance of different homeostatic mechanisms such as the equilibrium between cell proliferation and cell death. These mechanisms play an important role in maintaining normal tissue function and architecture. It is well known that...
