CADASIL: extended polymorphisms and mutational analysis of the NOTCH3 gene.

abstract：:Acoustic overstimulation causes apoptotic cell death in the cochlea. This death process is mediated, in part, by the mitochondrial signaling pathway involving Bcl-2 family proteins. Myeloid cell leukemia sequence 1 (Mcl-l) is an antiapoptotic member of the Bcl-2 family. Its involvement in noise-induced hair cell death...
