programmed cell death  

Definición

  • Programmed cell death, sometimes known as apoptosis, is when an unwanted cell deliberately commits suicide in a multicellular organism. This often comes from the advantages to be obtained from an organism's life cycle, not as a result of acute tissue injury. [Source: Encyclopedia of Global Health; Programmed Cell Death]
