Mice that are deficient for Apaf1 or caspase-9 are defective for cytochrome dependent apoptosis. Apoptosis is a critical event in development, allowing excess brain cells to be weeded out. The extent of brain overgrowth and the size of the cranial protrusions indicate that the pruning process in the developing brain must be massive. The dramatic effects of the deficiencies of Apaf1 and caspase-9 suggest that the cytochrome c-dependent apoptotic pathway the intrinsic pathway must be critically important in brain development.

What is the transport of material out of a cell by means of a sac or vesicle that first engulfs the material and then is extrude
Iteru [2.4K]
Exocytosis occurred, where a vesicle or liposome is transported through the cell's cytoskeleton to the cell surface membrane to fuse with it, releasing the contents from within the vesicle and into the extracellular environment.
It does not matter if the vesicle or liposome had previously fused with a lysosome previously.
So long as it is a vesicle/liposome, which has a phospholipid bilayer membrane (I.e. the same as the cell surface membrane), and fusion occurs, it is exocytosis.

Hope this helps! :)
