Journal ArticleDOI

The BCL-2 protein family: opposing activities that mediate cell death

TL;DR: New insights into interactions among BCL-2 family proteins reveal how these proteins are regulated, but a unifying hypothesis for the mechanisms they use to activate caspases remains elusive.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular mechanisms of cell death: recommendations of the Nomenclature Committee on Cell Death 2018.

Lorenzo Galluzzi, +186 more
TL;DR: The Nomenclature Committee on Cell Death (NCCD) has formulated guidelines for the definition and interpretation of cell death from morphological, biochemical, and functional perspectives.
Journal ArticleDOI

Control of apoptosis by the BCL-2 protein family: implications for physiology and therapy

TL;DR: The biochemical, structural and genetic studies that have clarified how the interplay between members of the BCL-2 family on mitochondria sets the apoptotic threshold are discussed, illuminating the physiological control of apoptosis, the pathological consequences of its dysregulation and the promising search for novel cancer therapies that target the BCA2 protein family.
Journal ArticleDOI

Proapoptotic Bcl-2 relative Bim required for certain apoptotic responses, leukocyte homeostasis, and to preclude autoimmunity.

TL;DR: Gene targeting in mice revealed important physiological roles for Bim and revealed that Bim is required for hematopoietic homeostasis and as a barrier to autoimmunity.
