Apoptosis, Physiological Cell Death, Historical Review and Current Status. Espinosa, María Beatriz The concept of Programmed Cell Death (PCD) has been used since 1951, andthe idea of the physiological cell death and the term apoptosis was established in 1972.Apoptosis occurs in embryonic cells at specific times and it is crucial for the embryosdevelopment. The tissues are remodeled by cell death under genetic control and withoutdamaging the surrounding tissues. If the normal mitosis/apoptosis rate is altered duringtissue formation, birth defects may appear. The physiological meaning of PCD is differentfrom necrosis. While necrosis is accidental and damaged cells are removed from the tissuesusing the inflammatory process, apoptosis is a metabolic pathway and has evolved in lifeorganisms because it is necessary for morphogenesis and differentiation in specialized andcomplex tissues. In this work we review the understanding of apoptosis for the past 42years. El concepto de muerte celular programada, descripto a mediados del siglo XX, se definió como “apoptosis” en 1972 y se diferenció de la necrosis. La apoptosis  ó “Programmed Cell Death” (PCD) ocurre en un momento específico del desarrollo embrionario y también en los tejidos adultos. Los tejidos se remodelan mediante apoptosis bajo control genético sin dañar el tejido circundante. Tanto la mitosis (proliferación) como la apoptosis, durante la formación de los tejidos, están reguladas genéticamente. El significado fisiológico de la apoptosis es completamente distinto al de la necrosis. Mientras que la necrosis es accidental y las células lesionadas se remueven provocando inflamación, la apoptosis es una vía metabólica celular, regulada genéticamente. En este trabajo revisamos el progreso del conocimiento del tema durante los últimos 42 años.
