Programmed cell death [PDF]

open access: yesWormBook, 2005
Programmed cell death is an integral component of C. elegans development. Genetic studies in C. elegans have led to the identification of more than two dozen genes that are important for the specification of which cells should live or die, the activation of the suicide program, and the dismantling and removal of dying cells.

How to target apoptosis signaling pathways for the treatment of pediatric cancers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Apoptosis represents one of the most important forms of cell death in higher organisms and is typically dysregulated in human cancers, including pediatric tumors.

Trial watch: Immunogenic cell death induction by anticancer chemotherapeutics

open access: yesOncoImmunology, 2017
The expression “immunogenic cell death” (ICD) refers to a functionally unique form of cell death that facilitates (instead of suppressing) a T cell-dependent immune response specific for dead cell-derived antigens. ICD critically relies on the activation

Macrophage biology plays a central role during ionizing radiation-elicited tumor response

open access: yesBiomedical Journal, 2017
Radiation therapy is one of the major therapeutic modalities for most solid tumors. The anti-tumor effect of radiation therapy consists of the direct tumor cell killing, as well as the modulation of tumor microenvironment and the activation of immune ...

Acid sphingomyelinase-dependent autophagic degradation of GPX4 is critical for the execution of ferroptosis

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2021
Ferroptosis is a type of regulated cell death characterized by ROS accumulation and devastating lipid peroxidation (LPO). The role of acid sphingomyelinase (ASM), a key enzyme in sphingolipid metabolism, in the induction of apoptosis has been studied ...

Lysosomal Changes in Mitosis

open access: yesCells, 2022
The recent discovery demonstrating that the leakage of cathepsin B from mitotic lysosomes assists mitotic chromosome segregation indicates that lysosomal membrane integrity can be spatiotemporally regulated.

Sorafenib fails to trigger ferroptosis across a wide range of cancer cell lines

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2021
Sorafenib, a protein kinase inhibitor approved for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma and advanced renal cell carcinoma, has been repeatedly reported to induce ferroptosis by possibly involving inhibition of the cystine/glutamate antiporter, known

Ferroptosis: friend or foe in cancer immunotherapy?

open access: yesOncoImmunology, 2023
Ferroptosis has gained interest due to it immunogenicity and the higher sensitivity of cancer cells to it. However, it was recently shown that ferroptosis in tumor-associated neutrophils leads to immunosuppression and negatively impacts therapy. Here, we

Immunogenic cell death

open access: yesThe International Journal of Developmental Biology, 2015
Currently, it is widely acknowledged that a proactive anticancer immunosurveillance mechanism takes part in the rejection of neoplastic lesions before they progress towards a benign or malignant tumour. However in cases of very aggressive neoplastic lesions consisting of cells with high mutational diversity, cancer cell variants might be formed that ...

Reversal of an immunity associated plant cell death program by the growth regulator auxin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
One form of plant immunity against pathogens involves a rapid host programmed cell death at the site of infection accompanied by resistance, termed the hypersensitive response (HR).
