Neurons are an unusual type of cell in that they send processes (axons and dendrites) over great distances. This elaborate morphology, together with their excitability, places neurons at risk for multiple insults. Recent studies have demonstrated that apoptotic and excitotoxic mechanisms not only co

## Abstract CD95 (Fas/Apo‐1) triggers apoptotic cell death via a caspase‐dependent pathway. Inhibition of caspase activation blocks proapoptotic signaling and thus, prevents execution of apoptosis. Besides induction of apoptotic cell death, CD95 has been reported to trigger necrotic cell death in s
