Apoptosis is a peer-reviewed journal devoted to basic and clinically-oriented investigations into programmed cell death. Stimulates research on the basis of mechanisms of apoptosis and its role in various human disease processes. Investigates links to cancer, autoimmune disease, viral infection, AIDS, cardiovascular disease, neurodegenerative disorders, osteoporosis and ageing. Encourages ...

Research on cell death is getting diverse. Apoptosis and other forms of programmed cell death play a critical role in maintaining cellular homeostasis and defending an organism from infections, cancer, and degenerative diseases. Apoptosis, a well-known form of programmed cell death, involves non-inflammatory and orderly organized dismantling of a cell. Different pathways and mechanisms have ...
Apoptosis is an ordered and orchestrated cellular process that occurs in physiological and pathological conditions. It is also one of the most studied topics among cell biologists. An understanding of the underlying mechanism of apoptosis is important as it plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of many diseases. In some, the problem is due to too much apoptosis, such as in the case of ...
Programmed cell death or apoptosis manifests itself through a complex network of biochemical pathways and distinct morphological signatures. It is a natural phenomenon in multicellular organisms required to maintain tissue homeostasis through selective removal of ageing and unwanted cells. Impairment of this tightly regulated cellular process leads to various pathophysiological conditions ...
Conventional cancer drugs work by triggering apoptosis, that is programmed cell death, in tumor cells. However, tumor cells have the ability to develop strategies to escape apoptosis, rendering the ...
