Prostaglandin E(2) induces caspase-dependent apoptosis in rat cortical cells.

abstract：:Parkinson's disease (PD) is a multifactorial disease caused by both genetic and environmental factors. Alpha-synuclein is of particular interest in PD since it is a major component of Lewy bodies and mutations in the alpha-synuclein gene were identified in familial PD. Oxidative stress and proteasomal dysfunction are ...
