Cell death is a common and reproducible feature of the development of many mammalian tissues/organs. Two well-known examples of programmed cell death (PCD) are the cell deaths associated with fusion of the neural folds and removal of interdigital mesenchymal cells during digit formation. Like normal development, abnormal development is also associated with increased cell death in tissues/organs that develop abnormally after exposure to a wide variety of teratogens. At least in some instances, teratogens induce cell death in areas of normal PCD, suggesting that there is a link between programmed and teratogen-induced cell death. Although researchers recognized early on that cell death is an integral part of both normal and abnormal development, little was known about the mechanisms of cell death. In 1972, Kerr et al.(’72) showed conclusively that cell deaths, induced in a variety of contexts, followed a reproducible pattern, which they termed apoptosis. The next breakthrough came in the 1980s when Horvitz and his colleagues identified specific cell death genes (ced) that controlled PCD in the roundworm,
