Inhibition of microRNA-429 attenuates oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation-induced neuronal injury by promoting expression of GATA-binding protein 4.

abstract：:In Purkinje cells from cerebellar slice cultures, low-threshold Ca spike (LTS) gives rise to complex bursts in the soma that resemble the complex spike induced by climbing fibers stimulation. We show that LTS is reduced by T-type and R-type Ca channel blockers (SNX-482, nickel, or mibefradil). We propose that LTS is g...
