## Abstract An increase in the permeability of the outer mitochondrial membrane is central to apoptotic cell death, since it leads to the release of several apoptogenic factors, such as cytochrome c and Smac/Diablo, into the cytoplasm that activate downstream death programs. During apoptosis, the m

## Abstract Expression of a proteinaceous elicitor harpin~Pss,~ encoded by __hrpZ__ of __Pseudomonas syringae__ pv. __syringae__ 61, under GAL1 promoter in __Saccharomyces cerevisiae__ Y187 resulted in galactoseβinducible yeast cell death (YCD). Extracellular treatment of harpin did not affect the
Cell death in the oligodendrocyte lineage occurs during development and in pathological conditions as the result of a balance between opposing molecular signals. This review focuses on the molecular mechanisms of activation of signal transduction pathways affecting life/death decisions in progenitor
The cytotoxic response to photodynamic therapy can involve apoptosis, necrosis or both. Using agents with known patterns of sub-cellular localization, we assessed different sites of photodamage as a determinant of cell death, using murine leukemia cells in vitro. Mitochondrial or mitochondrial + lys
Mitochondria play a central role in many apoptotic reactions. Although mitochondrial apoptotic changes and caspase activation have been demonstrated in the apoptotic thymocytes, cell death signal through mitochondria in TCR-stimulated thymocytes has not been fully understood. In this study, we show
