Table 1

The comparison of cellular events between apoptosis, pyroptosis, and oncosis.

	Apoptosis	Pyroptosis	Oncosis
Initiating	Programmed	Programmed	Nonprogrammed,; accidental
Signaling pathway	Caspase-3/6/7, DNA fragmentation	Caspase-1 DNA fragmentation	Noncaspase
Terminal event	Nonlytic, plasma membrane blebbing	Lytic, pore formation, and release of cytokines	Lytic
Effect on tissue	Noninflammatory, formation of apoptotic bodies	Inflammatory	Inflammatory
Cell types	All	Macrophages and DCs	All
