摘要
The death of cells by apoptosis is a fundamental event in development and the maintenance of cell homoeostasis. The other side of the coin, however, is that excessive cell death by apoptosis or the lack of apoptosis is often the driving force of many diseases. Whereas reduced apoptosis sensitivity is a basic characteristic of many turnout cells, accelerated tissue cell death and loss of tissue functions is the underlying cause of many auto-immune and inflammatory diseases.
