Cell death by apoptosis: basic concepts and disease relevance for the gastroenterologist

Gastroenterology
F G Que, G J Gores

Abstract

We have reviewed in a conceptual manner with appropriate scientific detail the role apoptosis plays in diseases of the gastrointestinal tract. This information should help the clinician and clinician investigator to better understand and treat gastrointestinal diseases. Future investigations in apoptosis probably will provide further insight into the cell-signaling cascades regulating apoptosis, the mechanism(s) by which Bcl-2 inhibits apoptosis, and the precise role of apoptosis in cancer initiation, promotion, and progression. We anticipate that in the future, the practicing gastroenterologist will have therapeutic strategies available to inhibit apoptosis for various gastrointestinal diseases associated with cell death and to induce apoptosis for the treatment of gastrointestinal neoplasia.

BCL-2 Family Proteins

BLC-2 family proteins are a group that share the same homologous BH domain. They play many different roles including pro-survival signals, mitochondria-mediated apoptosis and removal or damaged cells. They are often regulated by phosphorylation, affecting their catalytic activity. Here is the latest research on BCL-2 family proteins.

Apoptosis

Apoptosis is a specific process that leads to programmed cell death through the activation of an evolutionary conserved intracellular pathway leading to pathognomic cellular changes distinct from cellular necrosis
