OpposingrolesofAIFinApoptosisandCellSurvival

Programmed cell death is induced by many different factors and involves numerous signaling pathways, some dependent on caspase proteases and others that are caspase independent. Like cytochrome C, AIF (apoptosis-inducing factor) is a protein found in mitochondria that is released from mitochondria by apoptotic stimuli. While cytochrome C is linked to caspase-dependent apoptotic signaling, AIF release stimulates caspa......阅读全文
