Summary: Cell death process can be classified into three patterns: apoptosis, autophagy and necrosis. The transcriptional regulatory network of U. maydis was reconstructed based on homology inferences from other fungi, revealing key transcription factors and functional modules related to diverse cellular process including cell death. Selected genes were found to be downregulated at 72 h, marking the onset of cell death process in U. maydis.

Summary: By conducting bibliometric analyses, this study explores the research trends and hotspots of Pin1 and cell death. The results indicate that the research on Pin1 and cell death has been increasing annually since 2001, but growth after 2014 appears to be stagnant. The cooperation between core institutions needs to be strengthened, and recently, Fujian Medical University in China has emerged as the institution with the highest citation count. Further research is required to understand the role of Pin1 in cell death and to identify new research hotspots. Future studies are likely to focus on disease treatment using Pin1 inhibitors, before breakthroughs are made in understanding the molecular mechanisms or signaling pathways.

Summary: This review summarizes the knowledge of cell death induced by intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), with a focus on apoptosis and necrosis. It also discusses the involvement of recently described modes of cell death including necroptosis, pyroptosis, ferroptosis, autophagy, and parthanatos in ICH. Treatment strategies to mitigate brain injury based on specific cell death pathways after ICH are also summarized.

Summary: Rhinoviruses are common causes of the common cold and can lead to more severe diseases in lower respiratory tract infections. These viruses hijack host cell pathways to suppress antiviral responses, and the mechanism of how they exit infected cells remains unclear.

Summary: Cell death is a normal and essential component of development and homeostasis, but dysregulation of this process underlies most human diseases. Autophagy is a process mediated by the formation of double membrane vesicles, which allows cells to survive stresses and may also mediate cell death during development and pathogenesis.

Summary: Since the Nobel Prize was awarded more than twenty years ago for discovering the core apoptotic pathway in C. elegans, researchers around the world have conducted extensive research on apoptosis and various other forms of regulated cell death. Although there are still many aspects of regulated cell death that need to be clarified in specific cell subtypes and disease conditions, the last decade has seen the description of multiple cell death modalities, some of which have been successfully used in clinical therapy. To keep research into cell death alive, francophone researchers from several institutions in France and Belgium established the French Cell Death Research Network (FCDRN), which is at the forefront of emerging topics in cell death research. These research efforts will enhance our mechanistic knowledge of regulated cell death and its therapeutic applications in the coming years.

Summary: This study evaluated the transcriptomic profile of cell death pathways in bladder cancer patients and found that patients with high cell-death index (CDI) had a higher risk of mortality. These high-risk patients also exhibited an immunoevasive tumor microenvironment characterized by increased tumor-associated macrophage infiltration and expression of immune checkpoints. These findings provide important clinical and immunological insights for the management of bladder cancer.

Summary: Abnormalities in programmed cell death signaling cascades play a crucial role in the development and progression of cardiovascular diseases, leading to excessive cardiac remodeling and heart failure. Timely activation of cell death pathways post-injury can help in repairing cardiac structure and function. Drugs targeting key players in cell death signaling pathways may hold potential for future therapeutic strategies.

Summary: The study on cell death in yeast, especially Saccharomyces cerevisiae, may provide valuable insight into cell death mechanisms. However, the lack of clear classification of cell death types and the differences in experimental setups hinder direct comparisons between different stimuli. Future studies may benefit from side-by-side comparisons of various cell death-inducing stimuli using existing and novel markers.

Summary: Neutrophils play a crucial role in innate immune response by executing various effector functions. When activated, they undergo cell death processes to ensure the proper elimination of pathogens and damaged cells, contributing to timely resolution of inflammation. Neutrophils' cell death mechanisms include apoptosis, pyroptosis, necrosis, and others, ultimately maintaining homeostasis in the organism.

Summary: Cell death is a crucial process for maintaining the morphology and function of cells, with different modes of cell death having varying effects on different organs. The heart, being the most important organ, is a particular focus for studying the mechanisms of cell death and its relationship with heart diseases. Research on heart therapy is discussed in the context of pathogenesis.

Summary: SAH is a common cerebrovascular disease with high disability and mortality rates worldwide. The pathophysiological mechanisms involved in an aneurysm rupture in SAH are complex, including early brain injury and delayed brain injury. Multiple cell death pathways are stimulated during the pathogenesis of brain damage, such as necrosis, apoptosis, autophagy.

Summary: The let-7 gene encodes a highly conserved microRNA crucial for cell fate specification and developmental progression in animals. Some nematode species within the Caenorhabditis genus lack let-7 gene, but they possess let-7-family microRNAs that target LIN-41 mRNA.
