Death Receptors: Signaling and Modulation
REVIEW Apoptosis is a cell suicide mechanism that enables metazoans to control cell number in tissues and to eliminate individual cells that threaten the animal's survival. Cert...
Excitotoxic cell death
Abstract Excitotoxicity refers to the ability of glutamate or related excitatory amino acids to mediate the death of central neurons under certain conditions, for example, after...
Neural apoptosis
Abstract Apoptosis is a mode of cell death in which the cell plays an active role in its own demise. The study of neural apoptosis, the identification of genes controlling apopt...
Withdrawal of Survival Factors Results in Activation of the JNK Pathway in Neuronal Cells Leading to Fas Ligand Induction and Cell Death
The JNK pathway modulates AP-1 activity. While in some cells it may have proliferative and protective roles, in neuronal cells it is involved in apoptosis in response to stress ...
Inhibition of death receptor signals by cellular FLIP
The widely expressed protein Fas is a member of the tumour necrosis factor receptor family which can trigger apoptosis. However, Fas surface expression does not necessarily rend...
