A new review was published as the cover paper of Aging, titled "Types of cell death and their relations to host immunological pathways." Various immune pathways in the host, such as TH1 ...

In addition to apoptosis, scientists have proposed more than 20 other regulated forms of cell death. Increasingly, researchers find some of these other kinds of cell death are also reversible. In ...

The latest findings on the interaction between cell death and cellular senescence in cancer and their pathophysiological significance have been reviewed.

Aging cells secrete substances known to promote the growth of cancer cells. The development of drugs that can selectively kill these cells or inhibit the secretion of substances is ongoing.

The fat cells scarfed up all the nutrients, starving most of the tumor cells to death. The approach even worked when the ... The beige fat cells held sway over two different types of breast cancer ...

In a healthy gut lining, as in most tissues, a type of cell death called apoptosis is thought to mediate this process almost entirely on its own. But researchers from RIKEN in Kobe, Japan, suspect ...

Within multicellular organisms, tissues are organized communities of cells that work together to carry out a specific function. The exact role of a tissue in an organism depends on what types of ...

A type of aggressive, treatment-resistant brain tumor has a distinct population of immune cells that support its growth, ...

Different types of tissues, such as bone ... Although it sounds like a bad thing, apoptosis — or the process of programmed cell death — is an essential aspect of development.
