... stimulate HR generation in roots and this might lead to K + -channel activation. In animals, activation of K + -efflux channels by HRs can trigger programmed cell death (PCD). PCD symptoms in Arabidopsis roots developed much more slowly in gork1-1 and wild-type plants treated with K + -channel blockers...

...Sreenivas Gannavaram; Chetan Vedvyas; Alain Debrabant Endonuclease G is a mitochondrial protein implicated in DNA fragmentation during apoptosis in cell types ranging from fungi to mammals. Features of programmed cell death have been reported in a number of single-celled organisms, including...

... of 1090 somatic cells undergo programmed cell death during development. Transgenic expression of human Bcl-2 reduced cell death during nematode development, and partially complemented mutation of ced-9 , indicating that Bcl-2 can functionally interact with the nematode cell death machinery. Identification...

... no greater or lesser susceptibility to stresses reported to initiate programmed cell death, such as treatment with prostaglandin D 2 . The metacaspases were found to colocalise with RAB11, a marker for recycling endosomes. However, variant surface glycoprotein (VSG) recycling processes and the degradation...

... is a sequence-specific mRNA endoribonuclease that initiates a programmed cell death pathway in response to various stresses. The mazEF -mediated death pathway can act as a defense mechanism that prevents the spread of bacterial phage infection, allowing bacterial populations to behave like multicellular...

...Anna Zuppini; Lorella Navazio; Paola Mariani In animal cells, the endoplasmic reticulum may participate in programmed cell death by sensing and transducing apoptotic signals. In an attempt to analyze the role of the endoplasmic reticulum in plant programmed cell death we investigated the effect...

...., 1998 ). Mitochondria are known to play a central role in cell death control (Susin et al., 1998 ). During programmed cell death, cytochrome c is released from mitochondria into the cytosol, where it binds with Apaf1 to activate a series of caspase cascades (Cai et al., 1998 ; Liu et al., 1996...

The aim of this work was to determine if PCD is also...

...Ron Mittler; Lee Simon; Eric Lam ABSTRACT Sacrificing an infected cell or cells in order to prevent systemic spread of a pathogen appears to be a conserved strategy in both plants and animals. We studied some of the morphological and biochemical events that accompany programmed cell death during...
