Apoptosis and Caspases in Neurodegenerative Diseases
Abstract
A form of cell death called apoptosis is a prominent feature in a broad spectrum of neurodegenerative diseases, ranging from stroke to Huntington's disease. Hypoxia, toxic cytokines, damage to mitochondria, and noxious peptides are capable of inducing apoptosis; each of these mechanisms can account for the death of specific types of neurons in neurodegenerative diseases. Pharmacologic interference with the induction or completion of apoptosis holds promise for the treatment of these disorders, and clinical trials with one such agent are already under way.

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.
