A team of researchers at the University of Cologne’s Center for Biochemistry, together with the Bambino Gesù Pediatric Hospital in Rome, Italy, have discovered a fundamental biological mechanism that ...

Discover the challenges of acute myeloid leukaemia linked to inflammatory cell death and the quest for effective therapies.

New basic science insights into programmed cell death could offer relief for inflammatory bowel disease. Many people with IBD, an umbrella term that includes ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, ...

In an extensive review, researchers explore ZBP1-mediated programmed cell death and its potential as a therapeutic target for systemic diseases Programmed cell death, or PCD, is an actively regulated ...

In the fight against disease, programmed cell death – also known as apoptosis – is a key protective function of the body. It breaks down cells that are damaged or have undergone dangerous changes.

Even in death, cells leave a trace. Scientists have discovered a microscopic “Footprint of Death” that not only helps the immune system clean up but can also give viruses a new way to spread infection ...
