Cell death occurs for both physiological and pathological reasons. Varying modes of death are either programmed to safely remove healthy cells that are no longer useful or to stimulate an inflammatory response to clear cells that are useful but no longer healthy.

Listen to Dr. Katie Parzych as she discusses the key morphological and biochemical hallmarks that can be used as markers to help distinguish the major types of cell death and explores the broad collection of assay kits, probes, antibodies, activators, and inhibitors available from Cayman that can be used to study the features of various cell death pathways.
