Over the past decade, the Nomenclature Committee on Cell Death (NCCD) has formulated
guidelines for the definition and interpretation of cell death from morphological, biochemical …

Ischemic stroke caused by arterial occlusion is the most common type of stroke, which is
among the most frequent causes of disability and death worldwide. Current treatment …

Neuronal cell death occurs extensively during development and pathology, where it is
especially important because of the limited capacity of adult neurons to proliferate or be …

Programmed cell death (PCD) is an essential part of organismal development and plays
fundamental roles in host defense against pathogens and the maintenance of homeostasis …

Ischemic disorders, such as myocardial infarction, stroke, and peripheral vascular disease,
are the most common causes of debilitating disease and death in westernized cultures. The …

Apoptotic cells have long been considered as intrinsically tolerogenic or unable to elicit
immune responses specific for dead cell-associated antigens. However, multiple stimuli can …

Receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3)-mediated necroptosis is thought to be the
pathophysiologically predominant pathway that leads to regulated necrosis of parenchymal …

All life ends in death, but perhaps one of life's grander ironies is that it also depends on
death. Cell-intrinsic suicide pathways, termed programmed cell death (PCD), are crucial for …

Like the organism they constitute, the cells also die in different ways. The death can be
predetermined, programmed, and cleanly executed, as in the case of apoptosis, or it can be …

Cells exposed to extreme physicochemical or mechanical stimuli die in an uncontrollable
manner, as a result of their immediate structural breakdown. Such an unavoidable variant of …
