Involvement of mediators of ros-dependent apoptosis in the contact-dependent cell death of human neutrophils induced by entamoeba histolytica trophozoites
Apoptosis in neutrophils follows a non-classical program in which redoxsensitive mediators of the caspase-dependent cascade are suppressed by the increment in the molar concentration of ROS in the cell. This "oxidative burst" is catalyzed by the NADPH Oxidase, a membrane-bound complex enzy...
