Term Information

Accession: GO:0097189
Name: apoptotic body
Ontology: cellular_component
Synonyms: apoptotic vesicle, apoptotic bleb
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: A vesicle containing parts of a dying cell. Apoptotic bodies can be formed during the execution phase of the apoptotic process, when the cell's cytoskeleton breaks up and causes the membrane to bulge outward. These bulges may separate from the cell, taking a portion of cytoplasm with them, to become apoptotic bodies. These are then engulfed by phagocytic cells, and their components recycled. Apoptotic bodies may range in size from 0.8 to 5um. Source: GOC:vesicles, PMID:15242875, Wikipedia:Apoptosis, GOC:mtg_apoptosis, PMID:24223256, Wikipedia:Bleb_(cell_biology)
