Both the apoptotic suicide pathway and phagocytosis are required for a programmed cell death in Caenorhabditis elegans
Background Programmed cell deaths in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans are generally considered suicides. Dying cells are engulfed by neighboring cells in a process of phagocytosis. To better understand the interaction between the engulfment and death processes, we analyzed B.al/rapaav cell death...
