Mitochondria and apoptosis. [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Biochemistry, 1998
Programmed cell death serves as a major mechanism for the precise regulation of cell numbers and as a defense mechanism to remove unwanted and potentially dangerous cells. Despite the striking heterogeneity of cell death induction pathways, the execution of the death program is often associated with characteristic morphological and biochemical changes,

Necroptosis, pyroptosis and apoptosis: an intricate game of cell death

open access: yesCellular & Molecular Immunology, 2021
Cell death is a fundamental physiological process in all living organisms. Its roles extend from embryonic development, organ maintenance, and aging to the coordination of immune responses and autoimmunity.

Apoptosis [PDF]

open access: yesThe Oncologist, 1999
Mechanisms in Hematology is a book with an accompanying interactive CD-ROM designed to assemble basic concepts that underlie clinical understanding and progress. It is presented as a concise text with a series of diagrams that distill diffuse information into a compact form.

Apoptosis [PDF]

open access: yesAcademic Emergency Medicine, 1998
Abstract. Apoptosis is a process of cell suicide, the mechanisms of which are encoded in the genomes of all higher eukaryotes. The mechanisms involved in apoptosis suggest that the process is based on a viral defense originally developed in primitive multicelled eukaryotes and that the fundamental execution platform of the process involves 1 ...

The role of BCL-2 family proteins in regulating apoptosis and cancer therapy

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2022
Apoptosis, as a very important biological process, is a response to developmental cues or cellular stress. Impaired apoptosis plays a central role in the development of cancer and also reduces the efficacy of traditional cytotoxic therapies.

Inhibitor of apoptosis proteins and apoptosis [PDF]

open access: yesActa Biochimica et Biophysica Sinica, 2008
Apoptosis is a physiological cell death process that plays a critical role in development, homeostasis, and immune defense of multicellular animals. Inhibitor of apoptosis proteins (IAPs) constitute a family of proteins that possess between one and three baculovirus IAP repeats.

Apoptosis: A Basic Biological Phenomenon with Wide-ranging Implications in Tissue Kinetics

open access: yesBritish Journal of Cancer, 1972
The term apoptosis is proposed for a hitherto little recognized mechanism of controlled cell deletion, which appears to play a complementary but opposite role to mitosis in the regulation of animal cell populations.

Fetal-derived trophoblast use the apoptotic cytokine tumor necrosis factor-alpha-related apoptosis-inducing ligand to induce smooth muscle cell death. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Remodeling of the uterine spiral arteries during pregnancy transforms them from high to low resistance vessels that lack vasoconstrictive properties. This process is essential to meet the demand for increased blood flow imposed by the growing fetus. Loss

Introduction to Apoptosis [PDF]

open access: yesDiagnostic Molecular Pathology, 1995
Kerr and colleagues (II) coined the term" apoptosis" to designate a particular form of cell death distinct from necrosis. The salient features of apoptosis, which Kerr defined in histopathologic terms, were the breakup of individual cells into smaller, often round or ovoid cytoplasmic fragments containing pyknotic nuclear debris, called" apoptotic ...

Cardiac Specific Overexpression of Mitochondrial Omi/HtrA2 Induces Myocardial Apoptosis and Cardiac Dysfunction. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Myocardial apoptosis is a significant problem underlying ischemic heart disease. We previously reported significantly elevated expression of cytoplasmic Omi/HtrA2, triggers cardiomyocytes apoptosis.
