Endoplasmic reticulum involvement in yeast cell death [PDF]
, 2012 Yeast cells undergo programed cell death (PCD) with characteristic markers associated with apoptosis in mammalian cells including chromatin breakage, nuclear fragmentation, reactive oxygen species generation, and metacaspase activation.

A 3D cell death assay to quantitatively determine ferroptosis in spheroids [PDF]
, 2020 The failure of drug efficacy in clinical trials remains a big issue in cancer research. This is largely due to the limitations of two-dimensional (2D) cell cultures, the most used tool in drug screening.

Spatially and temporally defined lysosomal leakage facilitates mitotic chromosome segregation
Nature Communications, 2020 Lysosomes are intracellular organelles containing degradative enzymes, and leakage of lysosomal contents into the cell is thought to trigger cell death.

Impact of aging : sporadic, and genetic risk factors on vulnerability to apoptosis in Alzheimer's disease [PDF]
, 2003 The identification of specific genetic (presenilin-1 [PS1] and amyloid precursor protein [APP] mutations) and environmental factors responsible for Alzheimer's disease (AD) has revealed evidence for a shared pathway of neuronal death.

CellCell death supports morphogenesis during development and homeostasis after birth by removing damaged or obsolete cells. It also curtails the spread of pathogens by eliminating infected cells. Cell death can be induced by the genetically programmed suicide mechanisms of apoptosis, necroptosis, and pyroptosis, or it can be a consequence of dysregulated ...

Effector Caspase Dcp-1 and IAP Protein Bruce Regulate Starvation-Induced Autophagy during Drosophila Melanogaster Oogenesis [PDF]
, 2008 A complex relationship exists between autophagy and apoptosis, but the regulatory mechanisms underlying their interactions are largely unknown. We conducted a systematic study of Drosophila melanogaster cell death–related genes to determine their ...

PTEN modulates EGFR late endocytic trafficking and degradation by dephosphorylating Rab7
Nature Communications, 2016 Rab7 is a critical GTPase for endosome maturation and it is implicated in the endocytic traffic of several receptors, including EGFR. In this study, the authors reveal the potential role of PTEN in the endocytic trafficking pathway of EGFR, which is ...

Editorial: Yeast cell aging and death [PDF]
, 2018 A conspicuous amount of knowledge about the molecular biol- ogy of the cell has come from studies on yeast Saccharomyces cere- visiae, mostly because of its unrivaled qualities as a toolkit for molecular genetics study.

Caspase-independent cell death? [PDF]
Oncogene, 2002 Many cells die with apoptotic morphology and with documented activation of an effector caspase, but there are also many exceptions. Cells frequently display activation of other proteases, including granzymes, lysosomal cathepsins, matrix metalloproteinases, and proteasomal proteases, and others display morphologies that are not fully consistent with ...
