What are the Implications of Dysregulated Apoptosis?
Dysregulated apoptosis can have significant implications for health. Inadequate apoptosis can lead to uncontrolled cell proliferation and cancer, while excessive apoptosis can contribute to tissue damage and degenerative diseases. Toxicants that disrupt the delicate balance of apoptosis can therefore have profound effects on health, underscoring the importance of understanding and regulating apoptotic pathways in the context of toxic exposure.
