symbiont-mediated perturbation of host programmed cell death symbiont-mediated suppression of host programmed cell death https://github.com/geneontology/go-ontology/issues/23652 A process in which a symbiont inhibits or disrupts the normal execution of host programmed cell death, leading to a decrease in the frequency, rate or extent of programmed cell death in the host cell. The host is defined as the larger of the organisms involved in a symbiotic interaction. down-regulation by symbiont of host programmed cell death Reactome:R-HSA-9636569 negative regulation by symbiont of host programmed cell death suppression by symbiont of host PCD downregulation by symbiont of host programmed cell death inhibition of host programmed cell death suppression by symbiont of host programmed cell death down regulation by symbiont of host programmed cell death inhibition by symbiont of host programmed cell death biological_process GO:0052041
