Every second, something on the order of 1 million cells die in our bodies. 1 This is a good thing, because cell death is central to efficient homeostasis and adaptation to a changing environment. When, for some reason, it does not occur, the consequences can be catastrophic, manifesting as cancer, autoimmunity, or other maladies. Alternatively, if cell death occurs at the wrong time and place, this can also produce untoward effects, such as stroke, degeneration, heart attack, and many other injuries; thus, cell death is a major component of disease. Cells die for a variety of reasons. For example, they can become physically or chemically stressed to the point that they cannot maintain their integrity. More often, however, such stresses engage an active cell death process before the stress becomes overwhelming; that is, the cell essentially commits suicide. Most, but not all, cell suicide occurs by a process we call apoptosis.Another stress that triggers cell death is infection of the cell by an organism that would use the cell for its own parasitic ends (ie, to make additional parasites). Such cell death can protect the body from further infection, unless the parasite can prevent this protective death until it has reproduced. In organisms with immune systems, lymphocytes and phagocytic cells can detect an infected cell and instruct the cell to die. This cell death can be apoptosis or another type of active cell death.
