Step 1
During autophagy, the cell forms double-membraned vesicles called autophagosomes, which engulf and degrade cellular components, including organelles and proteins. Autophagic death can be triggered by various factors, such as nutrient deprivation, oxidative stress, Show more…

27. Describe some of the cellular changes that occur during apoptosis. How is apoptosis different from necrosis? Why is it important that "deleted" immune cells undergo apoptosis and not necrosis? (2pts) 28. Three distinct signals are required to induce naive T-cell activation, proliferation, and differentiation. What are the 3 signals? (3pts) 29. What are superantigens? How are they different from regular peptide antigens? (2pts)

The intrinsic apoptotic pathway is a process that occurs within cells. Once triggered, apoptosis typically takes a few hours to complete. The advantage of apoptosis is that it allows for a controlled and orderly death of the cell, as opposed to the cell simply rupturing.
