Programmed cell death: Pores finding reveals targets for cancer and degenerative disease

Scientists have identified a key step in the biological process of programmed cell death, also called apoptosis. The research is crucial to the development of drugs that can turn on apoptosis, thereby more effectively killing cancer cells. It could also be used in developing compounds that turn off the apoptosis that leads to degenerative disorders.
