AI overview

Apoptosis is a natural process in which cells in your body deliberately self-destruct through a series of internal chemical signals, resulting in characteristic changes like cell shrinkage and the breaking apart of the cell's DNA. This programmed cell death is essential for life—healthy adults lose between 50 and 70 billion cells daily through apoptosis, making it a normal and necessary part of how living organisms maintain themselves.

Anatomy.Caption: An etoposide-treated DU145 prostate cancer cell exploding into a cascade of apoptotic bodies. The sub images were extracted from a 61-hour time-lapse microscopy video, created using quantitative phase-contrast microscopy. The optical thickness is color-coded. With increasing thickness, color changes from gray to yellow, red, purple and finally black. />See the video at The Cell: An Image Library

L'apoptose (ou mort cellulaire programmée) est le processus par lequel des cellules déclenchent leur autodestruction en réponse à un signal. C'est l'une des voies possibles de la mort cellulaire, qui est physiologique, génétiquement programmée, nécessaire au développement et à la survie des organismes multicellulaires. Son équilibre avec la prolifération cellulaire permet l'homéostasie tissulaire. Contrairement à la nécrose, elle ne provoque pas d'inflammation : les membranes plasmiques ne sont pas détruites, du moins dans un premier temps, et la cellule émet des signaux (en particulier, elle expose sur le feuillet externe de sa membrane plasmique de la phosphatidylsérine, un phospholipide normalement constitutif de son feuillet interne) qui permettront sa phagocytose par des globules blancs, notamment des macrophages.
