Mini-Review: Cellular Mechanisms of Disease Series Bcl-2 and the Regulation of Programmed Cell Death
T HE terms programmed cell death (PCD) 1 and apoptosis are often used interchangeably to describe a mechanism of cellular demise that is believed to play an important role in a wide variety of physiological situations, and that when dysregulated can contribute to the pathogenesis of many diseases ranging from cancer to AIDS. Recently, the bcl-2 gene has emerged as a critical regulator of PCD in...
متن کاملApoptosis: a review of programmed cell death.
The process of programmed cell death, or apoptosis, is generally characterized by distinct morphological characteristics and energy-dependent biochemical mechanisms. Apoptosis is considered a vital component of various processes including normal cell turnover, proper development and functioning of the immune system, hormone-dependent atrophy, embryonic development and chemical-induced cell deat...
متن کاملProgrammed cell death in Dictyostelium.
Programmed cell death (PCD) of Dictyostelium discoideum cells was triggered precisely and studied quantitatively in an in vitro system involving differentiation without morphogenesis. In temporal succession after the triggering of differentiation, PCD included first an irreversible step leading to the inability to regrow at 8 hours. At 12 hours, massive vacuolisation was best evidenced by confo...
متن کاملApoptosis: programmed cell death.
C urrently there is much interest and excitement in the understanding of how cells undergo the process of apoptosis or programmed cell death. Understanding how, why, and when cells are instructed to die may provide insight into the aging process, autoimmune syndromes, degenerative diseases, and malignant transformation. This review focuses on the development of apoptosis and describes the proce...
متن کاملProgrammed cell death.
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. Molecular and biochemical studies have revealed the underlying conserv...
