Apoptosis, or programmed cell death, is crucial for tissue balance and development. This review explores its regulation and role in diseases like cancer and ocular conditions.

Area of Science:

  • Cell Biology
  • Biochemistry
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Apoptosis is a fundamental biological process involved in normal tissue homeostasis, embryonic development, and immune function.
  • Dysregulation of apoptosis is implicated in various pathological conditions, including cancer, AIDS, and ocular diseases.
  • Significant scientific interest has focused on understanding the mechanisms and implications of programmed cell death.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide a historical overview of apoptosis research.
  • To outline the criteria for identifying apoptosis.
  • To summarize and critique the genetic and biochemical regulation of apoptosis.
  • To examine the role of apoptosis in both physiological and pathological contexts.

Main Methods:
