[Types of cell death].

Pomeranian J Life Sci

Published: April 2018

Homeostasis in the body is maintained by multiple processes, including the balance between the formation of new cells and their dying. This paper describes the mechanism and pathways of apoptotic cell death, and the phenomenon of necrosis and autophagy. Furthermore, it describes rarely presented types of cell death, namely mitotic catastrophe, oncosis and pyroptosis. The course of these processes varies, as emphasized in the paper, and is on the one hand connected with maintaining the stability of tissues in physiological processes, but on the other hand processes of cell death are connected with the induction and progression of pathological processes. In the paper an attempt was made to show the basic differences between the described processes and their importance for the body.

Background: Damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) induced by immunogenic cell death (ICD) may be useful for the immunotherapy to patients undergoing pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). The aim of this study is to predict the prognosis and immunotherapy responsiveness of PDAC patients using DAMPs-related genes.

Methods: K-means analysis was used to identify the DAMPs-related subtypes of 175 PDAC cases.

Introduction: Owing to its high prevalence, colossal potential of chemoresistance, metastasis, and relapse, breast cancer (BC) is the second leading cause of cancer-related fatalities in women. Several treatments (eg, chemotherapy, surgery, radiations, hormonal therapy, etc.) are conventionally prescribed for the treatment of BC; however, these are associated with serious systemic aftermaths.

Purpose: Cervical cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer-related death in women. Furthermore, owing to its significant risk of recurrence or metastasis, the overall prognosis of patients with cervical cancer remains poor. Activating transcription factor 5 (ATF5) plays a crucial role in cell proliferation, survival, and apoptosis, and has been implicated in the progression of various types of cancer.

FPRL2 has been shown to be associated with a variety of tumours but has not been well studied in breast cancer. In this study, We combine molecular biology techniques with bioinformatics to analyze the role of FPRL2 in breast cancer and adriamycin resistance. By utilizing bioinformatics, we mine TCGA and GEO public databases to assess FPRL2 expression in breast cancer patients and its correlation with patient prognosis.
