Measurements of Neuronal Apoptosis
Apoptosis is a natural process occurring during the development of central nervous system resulting in the elimination of neurons that may have formed faulty synapses. Apoptosis can also be triggered by deprivation of growth factors or by exposure to a variety of endogenous or exogenous compounds.

Role of Mitochondria in Neuronal Apoptosis
Apoptosis is a controlled form of cell death that participates in the demise of neuronal cells during development, neurodegenerative disorders and exposure to neurotoxic agents. In recent years, the mitochondria have emerged as being pivotal in controlling apoptosis.

Staurosporine-Induced Neuronal Apoptosis
Staurosporine, a nonselective protein kinase inhibitor, has been shown to induce apoptosis in several different nonneuronal cell types. We tested the hypothesis that staurosporine would also induce apoptosis in central neurons. Exposure of murine cortical cell cultures to 30-100 nM staurosporine induced concentration-dependent selective neuronal ...

Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharides have protective effects against apoptosis in neurons exposed to ischemia/reperfusion injury, but the mechanisms are unclear. The goal of this study was to investigate the underlying mechanisms of the effects of ganoderma

Role of RB1 in neurodegenerative diseases: inhibition of post-mitotic neuronal apoptosis via Kmt5b
During the development of the vertebrate nervous system, 50% of the nerve cells undergo apoptosis shortly after formation. This process is important for sculpting tissue during morphogenesis and removing transiently functional cells that are no longer ...

A Genomic Approach to Investigate Neuronal Apoptosis
Apoptosis has been postulated to play a possible causal role in the onset of Alzheimer's disease due to shortage of trophic supply, deafferentation and excessive production of free radicals. Many experiments in the past have demonstrated the requirement of de novo gene expression during neuronal apoptosis.

Pin1 in Neuronal Apoptosis [PDF]
While the role of the prolyl isomerase Pin1 in dividing cells has long been recognized, Pin1's function in postmitotic neurons is poorly understood. We have identified a novel mechanism by which Pin1 mediates activation of the mitochondrial cell death machinery specifically in neurons.
