Abstract
Apoptosis is a programmed form of cell death, which primarily functions to eliminate altered cells that are useless or harmful for multicellular organisms. Molecular mechanisms of apoptosis include two major pathways: intrinsic and extrinsic, involving a number of molecules and organelles. Various genes and their products play a central role in control of apoptosis through promotion or inhibition of apoptotic pathways. Dysregulation of the apoptotic process may be related to aging process. The possibility that apoptosis participates in the ageing opens several novel opportunities to manipulate age related changes by regulating the apoptotic process.
