The demise of the marine cyanobacterium, Trichodesmium spp., via an autocatalyzed cell death pathway (2004, background): “It also provides another dimension to the current debate on the evolutionary origins and the role of PCD in unicellular and prokaryotic organisms (Aravind et al. 1999; Ameisen 2002).”
Hydrogen peroxide induces apoptotic-like cell death in Microcystis aeruginosa (Chroococcales, Cyanobacteria) in a dose-dependent manner (2012, methodology): “DNA fragmentation has also been used to diagnose apoptosis in animals and plants (Ameisen 2002; Williams & Dickman 2008).”
Cellular mechanisms of Cnidarian bleaching: stress causes the collapse of symbiosis (2008, background): “PCD has been described in unicellular organisms (Ameisen, 2002) and shares many common features with apoptosis, a form of PCD in animals that is described in detail below.”
Redox Homeostasis and Antioxidant Signaling: A Metabolic Interface between Stress Perception and Physiological Responses (2005, background): “A current hypothesis is that all cells survive by suppression of a default death pathway that is a legacy from the host– endosymbiont interactions through which eukaryotic cells evolved (Ameisen, 2002).”
Plant mitochondrial pathway leading to programmed cell death (2007, background): “The origin, evolution and nature of PCD seem to be as old as the very first cell, because the mechanisms controlling homeostasis and preventing self-destruction may involve the PCD machinery (Ameisen 2002).”
Caspases in cell survival, proliferation and differentiation (2007, background): “An interesting conceptual framework that reconciles the pleiotropic functions of caspases in an evolutionary perspective has been proposed recently.(96) Therefore, caspases may have been ideally positioned to play a central role in apoptosis through the integration of their pleiotropic functions in ”
Cell death and degeneration in the symbiotic dinoflagellates of the coral Stylophora pistillata during bleaching (2004, background): “Also, for dinoflagellate cell death to be classified as programmed, gene expression must be demonstrated—gene expression is a defining feature of PCD (Ameisen 2002)—and the use of protein synthesis inhibitors, or measurements of caspase activities, would be a logical next step.”
What is the role and nature of programmed cell death in phytoplankton ecology? (2006, background): “What is not questioned however, is that throughout all domains of life, cellular pathways exist that can lead to a biochemical cascade resulting in cell death (Aravind et al., 2001; Ameisen, 2002; Bidle & Falkowski, 2004).”
Size doesn’t matter: towards a more inclusive philosophy of biology (2007, background): “…programmed cell death or autolysis (self-disintegration) of individual cells appears to directly benefit the group (Dworkin 1996; Lewis 2000; Ameisen 2002; Rice and Bayles 2003; Velicer 2003).30 A great variety of communal strategies has been observed and experimented on in single-taxon…”
The Roles of Autophagy in Cancer (2018, background): “Recently, it has been reported that defects of autophagy are associated with genomic damage, metabolic stress, and tumorigenesis [3].”
