Die and let live - programmed cell death in plants.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Cysteine and serine proteases are prominent players in the control of developmental and pathogen-activated cell deaths in plants. Ethylene, salicylic acid, the small G-protein Rac, calcium and reactive oxygen species are recurring mediators of death signaling. Lastly, the mitochondrion has emerged in both plant and animal systems as a 'central depot' that interprets multiple signals and in some instances determines the fate of the cell.

Impact of Duration and Severity of Persistent Pain on Programmed Cell Death
Programmed cell death is a highly regulated form of cell death, mostly distinguished by the activation of a family of cystein-aspartate proteases (caspases) that cleave various proteins resulting in morphological and biochemical changes characteristic of this form of cell death. Several recent studies have addressed the role of programmed cell death in inflammatory and chronic pain states. Casp...
متن کاملLive and let die - A systems biology view on cell death
This contribution provides an overview of our work on modelling biological processes focussing on the example of programmed cell death, also called apoptosis. Apoptosis is a molecular programme present in all cells of multi-cellular organisms. It is crucial during development and for cell homoeostasis in the adult. Misregulation is implicated in severe diseases. We review an ordinary differenti...

متن کاملThe 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 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...
