3. Apoptotic clearance of cell body
- Phagocytosis: is a major mechanism used to remove
pathogens and cell debris
- Example of Phagocytic Cells: Macrophages (Monocytes)
Neutrophils & Eosinophils (Macrophages)
- Similarities between Necrosis and apoptosis is that there
remnanants are phagocytosed
4. Disorders Associated with
Dysregulated Apoptosis
• Defective apoptosis and increased cell
survival
• - Mutation in p53
– Cancer
– Autoimmune diseases
• Increased apoptosis and excessive cell
death
– Neurodegenerative diseases
– Ischemic injury
– Death of virus infected cells
5. Question and References
1. Is down-regulation of apoptosis associated with
cancer?
yes
or No

Editor's Notes
Nuclease will breakdown nuclic acid (DNA)
Protease break down proteins - whenn the lamins and actin filaments are cleaved how will the cell survive then they start forming blebs
How are the intrinsic and extrinsic apoptotic pathways are connected?
Activation of caspase 3 via caspase 8 can sometimes be sufficient to induce apoptosis in the extrinsic pathway. Sometimes it isn't though. Caspase 8 is also capable of cleaving and activating BID which induces the intrinsic/mitochondrial pathway (via Bak/Bax), Cytochrome c, apaf1,apoptosome,caspade 9,caspade 3,nuclease
Defective apoptosis and increased cell survival- imagine viral infection,
DNA damage and the cell keep dividing out of hand its leading to - Cancer
