Detection of DNA fragments in situ using the terminal deoxyribonucleotidyl transferase (TDTbmediated dUTP-digoxigenin nick end labeling (TUNEL) assay is increasingly applied to investigate active cell death (apoptosis). We studied the specificity of the assay i n well-defined models of apoptosis and
## Abstract Apoptosis is an active, intrinsic cell suicide program. We recently suggested that it may have a role in the death of nigrostriatal dopaminergic neurons in Parkinson's disease (PD). We now report that levodopa, the current major therapy for PD, is a potent inducer of apoptosis in cultur
## Abstract Since the identification of the first MAGE gene in 1991, the MAGE family has expanded dramatically, and over 25 MAGE genes have now been identified in humans. The focus of studies on the MAGE proteins has been their potential for cancer immunotherapy, as a result of the finding that pep
