In certain cases its cells undergo changes, which in time can lead to cancer.

Still others say it makes cells undergo normal cellular changes more rapidly.

The name is derived from the fact that the cells undergoing this form of cell death increase in size (balloon).

Very little direct information is available on whether cells undergo apoptosis from a certain point in the cell cycle.

He demonstrated for the first time that most cells and tissues in the adult body undergo continued renewal.

In flowering plants, cells of the gametophyte can undergo this process.

And "when ced-9 is off," he said, "many or maybe all the cells will undergo programmed cell death."

Most normal cells undergo a programmed form of death (apoptosis).

"These changes are the earliest things you see when cells are undergoing modification."

Cancerous cells do not undergo apoptosis and that is why they are such a problem.
