  • To highlight the growing importance of studying neural apoptosis.
  • To explore the genes and mechanisms governing neural apoptosis.
  • To underscore the potential for therapeutic interventions targeting neural apoptosis.

Main Methods:

  • Review of existing literature on neural apoptosis.
  • Identification of key genes involved in apoptotic pathways.
  • Examination of the pathophysiological relevance of neural apoptosis.
