Abstract

Allopurinol Treatment Hypoxic Group Neonatal Stressor Nuclear Enve Programme Cell Death
About 2.2 billion years ago, as the oxygen level of the planet was rising, a new sort of life form emerged, forged from a shaky alliance of what were to become the mitochondria and the remainder of the cell. The protomitochondria brought respiration to the partnership, and with it the power to kill every new cell by production of reactive oxygen species — a mechanism of cell death that still exists throughout the eukaryotes.
