APOPTOSIS INDUCTION/SUPPRESSION: A FEASIBLE APPROACH FOR NATURAL PRODUCTS TO TREATMENT OF DISEASES, 2nd Edition
This Research Topic is part of a series. See also: Apoptosis Induction/Suppression: A Feasible Approach for Natural Products to Treatment of Diseases, Volume II. Apoptosis is generally recognized as a form of programmed cell death, which is beneficial for normal cell development, organ growth and tissue homeostasis in multicellular organisms. In normal conditions, millions of cells would indeed die and proliferate every day in the human body. However, an imbalance between cell death and proliferation can lead to some serious diseases. Two different case scenarios can be distinguished: 1) uncontrolled cell proliferation and insufficient cell apoptosis would lead to various cancer types and au...
