Time to show apoptotic signs after induction of apoptosis

Range	cultured cells 5–10 hours: cells within tissues 11-14 days
Organism	Multicellular organisms
Reference	Sundquist et al. (2006) Timing your apoptosis assays, pp.18-21 link p.19 right column 3rd paragraph
Comments	P.19 right column 3rd paragraph:"In general, cultured cells induced to undergo apoptosis exhibit signs of apoptotic events much sooner (within hours 5–10) than cells within tissues (within days 11–14). When studying an in vivo model, some late apoptotic events may never be detected, as apoptotic cells in tissues are often phagocytosed before late events can be detected."
