WBbiopr:00000066Public_nameApoptotic response to stress
SummaryEnvironmental (oxidative, thermal, pathogens, etc.) and genotoxic stressors can induce cells to undergo apoptosis. This response is especially apparent in the germline of C. elegans. Stress-induced germline apoptosis is mostly triggered by DNA-damage checkpoint pathways that monitor the genome's integrity.
