Activation of metabotropic glutamate receptors delays apoptosis of chick embryonic motor neurons in vitro.

abstract：:Animal studies have shown brain ischaemia to cause oxidative damage to DNA and activation of caspase-3, leading to apoptosis. These changes may be exacerbated by reperfusion. To assess caspase-3 activation after transient and permanent brain ischaemia in man, we examined brain tissue from patients who had experienced ...
