Abstract

During the past two decades, apoptotic cell death has been the subject of an intense wave of investigation, leading to the discovery of multiple gene products that govern both its induction and execution. In parallel, it has progressively become evident that most, if not all, proteins that had initially been discovered for their essential role in apoptosis also mediate a wide range of non-apoptotic functions. On the one hand, apoptotic regulators and executioners are involved in non-lethal physiological processes as diverse as cell cycle progression, differentiation, metabolism, autophagy and inflammation. On the other hand, pro-apoptotic proteins can control other modalities of programmed cell death, in particular regulated necrosis. In this review, we summarize the unconventional roles of the apoptotic core machinery from a functional perspective and discuss their pathophysiological implications.

  • MOMP directly promotes the cytosolic release of apoptogenic factors that normally reside in the mitochondrial intermembrane space, including cytochrome c (CYCS) and SMAC.

    “MOMP directly promotes the cytosolic release of apoptogenic factors that normally reside in the mitochondrial intermembrane space [40, 44, 156]. These mitochondrial proteins include (but are not limited to) cytochrome c, somatic (CYCS), which usually operates as an electron shuttle in the mitochondrial respiratory chain [157–160], and diablo IAP-binding mitochondrial protein (DIABLO; also known as”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
