Evolution of apoptosis-like programmed cell death in unicellular protozoan parasites [PDF]
Apoptosis-like programmed cell death (PCD) has recently been described in multiple taxa of unicellular protists, including the protozoan parasites Plasmodium, Trypanosoma and Leishmania.

Programmed cell death in type II neuroblast lineages is required for central complex development in the Drosophila brain [PDF]
Background: The number of neurons generated by neural stem cells is dependent upon the regulation of cell proliferation and by programmed cell death.

PTEN modulates EGFR late endocytic trafficking and degradation by dephosphorylating Rab7
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 ...

We thank J.-F. Brunet, P. G. H. Clarke, O. deLapeyriere, P. Golstein, J.-C. Martinou, C. Mulle, and R. W. Oppenheim for thoughtful comments on the manuscript and C. Waldmann for artwork. In a short review such as this, it is not possible to establish precedence for all ideas or mechanisms, many of which originate from (or are still confined to) studies

Solid Pseudopapillary Neoplasm of the Pancreas in Children and Adolescents: Expert Recommendations
ABSTRACT Solid pseudopapillary neoplasm of the pancreas (SPN) is a rare low‐grade malignant exocrine pancreatic tumor, mostly discovered during the second decade of life in females, with a very good prognosis, provided microscopically complete surgical excision is achieved.

Gene trapping identifies transiently induced survival genes during programmed cell death [PDF]
Background: The existence of a constitutively expressed machinery for death in individual cells has led to the notion that survival factors repress this machinery and, if such factors are unavailable, cells die by default.

Acute Neurological Events in Children With Hemoglobin SC Disease: A Multicenter Retrospective Study
ABSTRACT Introduction Neurological manifestations in children with hemoglobin SC (HbSC) disease remain insufficiently characterized, particularly regarding acute events. The aim of this study was to describe the spectrum and frequency of acute neurological events in a multicenter cohort of children with HbSC disease.

Epidermal keratinocytes undergo a unique form of terminal differentiation and programmed cell death known as cornification. Cornification leads to the formation of the outermost skin barrier, i.e. the cornified layer, as well as to the formation of hair and nails.

Ewing Sarcoma in Infants and Children Under 2 Years of Age: A French Retrospective Study
ABSTRACT Ewing sarcoma, the second most common primary bone cancer in children, requires intensive treatment that may lead to significant long‐term sequelae, particularly in infants. We retrospectively analyzed data from 1621 French patients treated between 1988 and 2015 within the EW88/93/97 or EE99 trials, focusing on 17 infants diagnosed before 24 ...

The mutualistic fungus Piriformospora indica colonizes Arabidopsis roots by inducing an endoplasmic reticulum stress-triggered caspase-dependent cell death [PDF]
In Arabidopsis thaliana roots, the mutualistic fungus Piriformospora indica initially colonizes living cells, which die as the colonization proceeds. We aimed to clarify the molecular basis of this colonization-associated cell death.
