The Role of Caspase 9 during Programmed Cell Death in Ciliary Ganglia of Chick Embryos
During programmed cell death (PCD) apoptosis is controlled by many factors such as proteases. With no specific protease (s) known during PCD in the developing nervous system so far, we sought to determine if any specific protease (s) is involved in this process and therefore used different protease inhibitors during PCD (from embryonic day 6 to 10) in chick embryos. Among the inhibitors commerc...
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...

متن کامل[Apoptosis--programmed cell death].
Apoptosis is a highly organized physiologic mechanism of destroying injured and abnormal cells as well as maintaining homeostasis in the multicellular organism. Apoptosis is tightly controlled at the genetic level and dysregulation of the apoptosis machinery may contribute to a variety of diseases. Pharmacologic manipulation of this pathway is a novel therapeutic target.
