Cell Death
Cell death terminates normal cellular functions, including respiration, metabolism, growth and proliferation. Cell death can be non-programmed, for example as the result of accidental injury or trauma, or programmed. Types of programmed cell death include anoikis, apoptosis, autophagy, necrosis, necroptosis and pyroptosis.
