## Abstract The simple nematode worm __Caenorhabditis elegans__ has been instrumental in deciphering the molecular mechanisms underlying apoptosis. Beyond apoptosis, several paradigms of non‐apoptotic cell death, either genetically or extrinsically triggered, have also been described in __C. elegan

## Abstract Apoptosis is a specific mode of programmed cell death (PCD), recognized by characteristic morphological and molecular changes. Here we present evidence for a non‐apoptotic type of PCD in human MCF‐7 breast carcinoma cells. We used TNF‐α and tyrphostin AG213 to induce apoptotic and non‐a
## Abstract The programmed cell death inducing effect of the EGF receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor α‐cyano‐3,4‐dihydroxycinnamthioamide (AG213) was investigated in vitro on HT‐29 human colon tumor. AG213 at concentrations between 45 to 450 μM blocks the proliferation of HT‐29 cells. Morphological
Mutations in the proteolipid protein gene (PLP/plp), which encodes the major intrinsic membrane protein in central nervous system (CNS) myelin, cause inherited dysmyelination in mammals. One of these mutants, the myelin-deficient (md) rat, has severe dysmyelination that is associated with oligodendr
