    Glossary Caspase-8

    enzyme initiating programmed cell death, crucial for tissue health

    Caspase-8 is an enzyme that plays a crucial role in the process of programmed cell death, also known as apoptosis. It acts as an initiator caspase, meaning it helps to trigger the cascade of events that lead to cell death, which is essential for maintaining healthy tissue by removing damaged or unnecessary cells.
