Cell Death

There are two ways in which the body's cells undergo cell death: necrosis or apoptosis. Necrosis is usually caused by cell injury, ...

Apoptosis is described as an active, programmed process of autonomous cellular dismantling that avoids eliciting inflammation. Necrosis has been characterized as passive, accidental cell death resulting from environmental perturbations with uncontrolled r

There are two main cell death types: programmed cell death called apoptosis and unprogrammed cell death due to cell injury: necrosis.

Apoptosis is viewed as a naturally occurring process while necrosis is a pathological process. Pathological processes are caused by toxins, ...

Apoptosis and Necrosis are the variants of cell death. Necrosis is caused by external factors and apoptosis is a naturally occurring programmed cell death.

Necrosis is a serious type that causes permanent tissue death. And sometimes, apoptosis and autophagy can contribute to illnesses like cancer. Your body is busy ...

This unit describes protocols for the measurement of apoptosis and necrosis and for distinguishing apoptosis from programmed as well as conventional necrosis.

Necroptosis is a type of programmed cell death that combines necrosis and apoptosis. In other words, it takes on a necrotic appearance, although cells die in a ...

Learn the key differences between apoptosis-programmed cell death, necroptosis-programmed necrosis and autophagy-survival mechanism.

Here, we summarize the latest discoveries in the three most well understood modalities of cell death, namely, apoptosis, necroptosis, and pyroptosis.
