Cell Cell Death Communication By Signals Passing Through Non-Aqueous Environments


" Here we reported strong evidence for non-chemical intercellular signaling leading to biological cellular response. We found the ability of various cell types under conditions of oxidative stress induced by p-benzoquinones to generate death signals, which can affect target cells over long distances through non-aquatic environments resulting in morphological alterations and viability loss. We show that detector cells may distinguish and respond the same way to death signals transmitted from various type of inducer cells and pharmaceuticals may interrupt cellular death responses. These findings provide strong support for the view that non-chemical signals can provide a prompt and synchronic response of cell ensembles to noxious stimuli." {Credits 1}

" Miller and Web [30] explained non-chemical cell-cell communication as function of genome that can directly send and receive the electromagnetic information. Recently it was suggested that electroacoustic resonances between similar DNA sequences form the basis of signaling within the genome and coordinate the function of the cell [31-34]. We can hypothesize that non-chemical death signals emitted by inducer cells may be received by detector cells through sequence-specific resonance signaling in the genome which in turn trigger apoptosis. Obviously, further integrated, comprehensive studies are needed to verify these hypotheses and to clarify in detail the mechanism underlying non-chemical signaling are required. Nevertheless, the above results are convincing enough to suggest that animal cells are capable of sending and receiving biologically significant non-chemical signals, which can provide a prompt and synchronic response of cell ensembles to noxious stimuli." {Credits 1}
