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.

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 ...

Researchers identified two anoikis-related genes linked with CTEPH, and that may serve as diagnostic biomarkers or treatment ...

Darwin's theory of natural selection provides an explanation for why organisms develop traits that help them survive and reproduce. Because of this, death is often seen as a failure rather than a ...

A new review and policy statement underscore the inaccuracy of sickle cell trait as a cause of death on autopsies.

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 ...
