Researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center have identified a protein that causes human cell membranes to break open in a ...

This finding, he suggests, helps link the study of cell death in the worm and oncogenesis in people. "There were a number of papers that had suggested a relationship between cell death and oncogenesis ...

EPFL scientists have identified a molecular pathway that protects cells from lipid oxidation and ferroptosis, a regulated ...

CBD and THC kill ovarian cancer cells at doses that largely spare normal cells, disrupting survival pathways through multiple ...

This review highlights the critical role of ubiquitin-specific proteases (USPs) in regulating programmed cell death (PCD) in breast cancer (BC). As the most prevalent malignant tumor among women, BC ...

Researchers at LMU University Hospital have discovered a new molecular switch that protects against cell death. Programmed cell death protects the body against cancer and other diseases. A team of ...

One of the hallmarks of cancer cells is their ability to evade apoptosis, or programmed cell death, through changes in protein expression. Inducing apoptosis in cancer cells has become a major focus ...

Programmed cell-death (or PCD) is death of a cell in any form, mediated by an intracellular program. In contrast to necrosis, which is a form of cell-death that results from acute tissue injury and ...

A new Dartmouth study opens new avenues for understanding—and potentially manipulating—how cells decide to live or die.

There are several programmed cell death pathways that lead to cellular self-destruction, either for developmental processes, tissue maintenance, or stress responses. These include apoptosis, ...
