Pathways of apoptosis

APOPTOSIS STEPS: Cell Apoptosis happens in a gentle and controlled way that does not negatively affect surrounding cells. A cell will release moisture to dry itself out and condense until fragmentation occurs. There are no morphological changes because the cell does not release into the extracellular environment. Small vesicles called apoptotic bodies are formed to transport the cell contents elsewhere. This allows cells to die gently and not cause any inflammation. Apoptosis is signaled by chro
