    GlossaryApoptotic Pathway

    process where cells self-destruct in a controlled manner

    The apoptotic pathway, also known as the programmed cell death pathway, is a series of biochemical events that lead to the orderly and efficient elimination of damaged or unnecessary cells. This process is crucial for maintaining tissue health and homeostasis, and it involves the activation of specific proteins called caspases that dismantle the cell from within, ensuring that the cell's contents are safely recycled or disposed of without causing inflammation or damage to surrounding tissues.
