The article presents data on the use of peptide bioregulators of cell homeostasis and the protective functions of the body in various dental diseases and pathology of organs and tissues of the maxillofacial region. Issues related to the immunopharmacological effect and clinical use of natural and synthetic peptide thymomimetics (thymalin, thymogen, vilon, epithalamin, cortexin) and peptide bioregulators from cartilaginous (sigumir, chondrolux) and other tissues in case of trauma, as well as inflammatory, inflammatory and other pathological processes of tissues of the oral cavity and maxillofacial region. Particular attention is paid to their use in the complex treatment of dental diseases in the elderly.

Deletion of IRS-1 leads to growth failure and insulin resistance with downregulation of liver and muscle insulin signaling in rats.

Insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-1 and IRS-2 are major molecules that transduce signals from insulin and insulin-like growth factor-I receptors. The physiological functions of these proteins have been intensively investigated in mice, while little is known in other animals. Our previous study showed that the disruption of IRS-2 impairs body growth but not glucose tolerance or insulin sensitivity in rats, which led us to hypothesize that IRS-1 plays more pivotal roles in insulin functions than IRS-2.

Article Synopsis
- The review summarizes long-term research by the Saint-Petersburg Institute of Bioregulation and Gerontology on the biological activity of peptide bioregulators and compares findings from domestic and international studies.
- Russian scientists have taken the lead in using buccal epithelium as a diagnostic marker for age-related diseases, highlighting their significant contributions in this field.
- The research reveals that peptides from the epiphysis can enhance melatonin secretion and influence circadian rhythms in the elderly by regulating gene expression and reducing harmful protein synthesis, suggesting their potential as therapeutic agents for age-related issues.

Cellular aging is the inability of structures to proliferate (further division) and repair damage while maintaining metabolic activity. The key well-known factors of cellular aging are the processes of DNA damage, telomere shortening, the development of oxidative stress and epigenetic changes. The above factors provoke the development of a pro-inflammatory environment, leading to errors in gene expression and metabolic dysregulation, thereby affecting the development of age-related diseases that contribute to pathological changes in the functions of tissues and organs.

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a chronic multifactorial degenerative eye disease and one of the leading causes of irreversible blindness worldwide. Despite extensive research, there is no consensus on the predominant pathological mechanism leading to photoreceptor death. AMD is associated with molecular and cellular disruptions that ultimately result in photoreceptor degeneration.

Article Synopsis
- - During pregnancy and lactation, mammals experience significant changes in their intestinal epithelium, leading to an increase in intestinal surface area through the expansion of villi.
- - The RANK-RANKL molecular pathway is crucial for this process, protecting gut cells from death and promoting intestinal stem cell activity, which results in villous elongation.
- - Mice lacking RANK in their intestinal epithelium have offspring that are heavier and more prone to glucose intolerance, highlighting the importance of RANK-RANKL in both immediate and long-term health outcomes for offspring.
