Biochemical mechanism in Programmed Cell Death: An Overview

Programmed cell death (PCD) is the cellular process in response with any cellular dangerous stimulus. It can be divided into several types depend on ultra-structural changes detected by electron transmission microscope and biochemical pathway involving in the processes. In conclusion, two main pathways relying on an initiating point has been proposed, i.e. intrinsic and extrinsic pathway. Intrinsi…
