Necrosis Research Paper

173 Words1 Page

Until recently necrosis has been thought of as random cell death, but after further research it has been found that it has more of a regulated system than what was originally thought4. Mitochondria are involved in a number of processes that regulates necrosis. These processes cause mPTPs (mitochondrial permeability transition pores) to open, this in turn causes the loss of the electron potential gradient and the dilution of the solute matrix solution resulting in the swelling of mitochondria5. The first protein Nix causes Ca2+ to be released from the endoplasmic reticulum, the Ca2+ is then transported into the mitochondrial matrix where necrosis can then be induced4. Proteins such as Bax and Poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) can also initiate necrosis

    Abstract The purpose of this experiment is to test for mitochondrial activity by isolating different organelles using the differential centrifugation process. Studying mitochondria is extremely important because they control the death and life of the cell by regulating the apoptotic signals (Frezza et al 2007).
