Genecks Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 I like putting a date on certain terms. One that I have recent come across was "membrane blebbing." I get the idea, but I've never really heard the term. I've known of lysis, necrosis, and apoptosis. But then I come across this term called "blebbing." How recent is this term? Anyone get a rough idea? I'm looking at the sources in Wikipedia, and it seems from a quick look that the term came around in the late 1990s.

Greippi Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 (edited) I laughed like a drain for 20 minutes when I first heard it in a lecture about apoptosis. The earliest publication I found with "blebbing" in the title was 1966 (STUDY ON MEMBRANE ELEVATION (BLEBBING) IN RABBIT ZYGOTE) Edited April 24, 2010 by Greippi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
