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.

Drug-delivering nanoparticles designed to glow when their target cells die can report on the effectiveness of cancer therapies within just a few hours of treatment, a mouse study shows.

Much of the CD4+ T-cell death that occurs during HIV infection may be caused by direct delivery of the virus from neighboring cells, a study shows.
