Summary Annotation "In Apoptosis Techniques and Protocols leading experts offer investigators at all levels of experience an indispensable introduction to the basics of apoptosis, as well as essential details of the methods used in its study. These authorities cover such important topics as the histological, biological, and molecular criteria for apoptosis and programmed cell death; necrosis and apoptosis in the CNS; and cellular, invertebrate, animal, and human models of apoptosis in Alzheimer's disease, AIDS, and stroke. The techniques they describe examine the critical steps involved in the apoptotic process, and include PCR analysis of cell-cycle-regulated proteins, histochemical analysis of DNA regulation, DNA laddering analysis, and cytochemical alterations of living cells."--BOOK JACKET.
