ABSTRACT
Cell death has been classified in different types considering
the morphological features displayed; the main categories are
necrosis and apoptosis. Necrosis is characterized by rupture of
plasmatic membrane and organelle swelling, while apoptosis
courses with high chromatin condensation without disruption of
cell membrane. Traditionally, apoptosis has been denominated
programmed cell death, since it is associated with the execution
of an orchestrated program which implies gen expression,
protein synthesis and caspase activation; whereas necrosis
has been considered a passive and disordered phenomenon
generated by the massive influx of ions and water to the cell.
However, recent evidence points to the existence of a type
of cell death with necrotic morphology, which implies the
execution of well-regulated cell events. Specifically for neurons,
this type of active necrosis has been observed under specific
experimental conditions and has been termed programmed
necrosis or necroptosis. The goal of this review is to describe
the mechanisms known about these forms of necrosis in
neurons emphasizing the knowledge existing nowadays about
programmed necrosis.
