Apoptosis Induction in Tumor Cells

Molecular classification
Pathway, Biological process
01

Overview

Apoptosis induction in tumor cells refers to the activation of programmed cell death pathways specifically within cancerous cells. This process is a critical target for anticancer therapies. Apoptosis can be triggered by various internal and external signals, including DNA damage, cellular stress, and engagement of specific cell surface receptors via the intrinsic and extrinsic pathways.

02

Mechanism of action

Various, depending on the specific pathway and target involved. Includes inhibition of anti-apoptotic proteins (e.g., BCL-2 family members), activation of death receptors, and induction of DNA damage.
