Apoptosis: a basic biological phenomenon with wide-ranging implications in human disease

"Apoptosis: A Basic Biological Phenomenon with Wide-Ranging Implications in Tissue Kinetics" (1972), by John F. R. Kerr, Andrew H. Wyllie and Alastair R. Currie

?Apoptosis: A Basic Biological Phenomenon with Wide-Ranging Implications in Tissue Kinetics? (hereafter abbreviated as ?Apoptosis?) was published in the British Journal of Cancer in 1972 and co-authored by three pathologists who collaborated at the University of Aberdeen, Scotland. In this paper the authors propose the term apoptosis [4] for regulated cell death that proceeds through active, co...

Apoptosis. Basic concepts and implications in coronary artery disease.

Apoptosis is an active form of cell death that is intricately regulated and distinct from necrosis. Data suggest that apoptosis may play a role in the pathophysiology of coronary atherosclerotic disease. Anatomic evidence of apoptosis has been observed in coronary atherosclerosis, restenosis, and transplant arteriopathy, accompanied by an increase in biochemical and genetic markers of apoptosis...

Biological Adaptation in Human Societies: a ‘basic Needs’ Approach

The ground-zero premise (so to speak) of the biological sciences is the assumption that survival and reproduction is the basic, continuing, inescapable problem for all living organisms; life is at bottom a “survival enterprise.” Whatever may be our perceptions, aspirations, or illusions, this tap-root assumption is applicable to the human species as well. Survival is the “paradigmatic problem” ...

A Wide - Ranging Power Supply of Gompact

Its output ranging from 0 to 50 volts and 0 to 10 amperes, this 200W, series-re gulated, laboratory power supply spans a range that would normally require three power supp/ies, and it can be programmed by way of the HP interface bus. f AB SECTION MANAGERS, production en-I-r gineers, and materials engineers often face a difficult choice when specifying the purchase of a power supply for their op...
