Neuronal Apoptosis: Current Understanding of Molecular Mechanisms and Potential Role in Ischemic Brain Injury

Abstract excerpt

Apoptosis is a rediscovered mechanism of cell death crucial in normal development. Recent exploration of the genetic mechanisms of apoptosis has broadened our insight into the regulation of cell death in development as well as disease states. We present an overview on current understanding of the genetic molecular events in apoptosis in all, or most cell types, with emphasis on events observed in a...
