Drugs targeting patients’ immune systems, rather than the virus itself, could be key to recovery from severe cases of the disease, some researchers suggest.

Introducing either necroptotic cells or an enzyme that triggers necroptosis can wipe out cancer.

Telomeres in cancer cells exposed to oxidative stress got shorter and stickier.

Internalizing the environment might be the next step in humans’ relationship with our planet.

Apoptosis and other types of programmed cell death appear to be reversible.

Molecular programs can rescue cells already engaged in the process of apoptosis or other forms of programmed cell death.

Researchers identify antibacterial functions of cell death in Arabidopsis when the plant is infected with Pseudomonas.  

The biologist earned a Nobel Prize in 2002 for his work on C. elegans.

M proteins from Streptococcus bacteria selectively kill mouse macrophages and human macrophage-like cells by prompting cell death.
