Calcineurin and mitochondrial function in glutamate‐induced neuronal cell death

Ankarcrona, Maria, Dypbukt, Jeannette M., Orrenius, Sten, Nicotera, Pierluigi·1996·FEBS Letters

Abstract

We have previously reported that glutamate can trigger a succession of necrosis and apoptosis in cerebellar granule cells (CGC). Since specific blockers of the (NMDA) receptor channel prevented both types of cell death, the role of Ca 2+‐dependent processes in the initiation of glutamate toxicity was further investigated. We examined the possible involvement of mitochondria and the role of the Ca 2+/calmodulin‐regulated protein phosphatase, calcineurin, in the development of either type of cell death. Cyclosporin A and the more selective calcineurin inhibitor, FK‐506, prevented the development of both early necrosis and delayed apoptosis. In addition, cyclosporin A prevented the collapse of mitochondrial membrane potential observed during the exposure to glutamate and the concomitant necrotic phase. When CsA was added immediately after glutamate removal, it also prevented delayed apoptosis of neurons that had survived the necrotic phase. Altogether, these results suggest the involvement of calcineurin and a role for mitochondrial deenergization as early signals in neuronal apoptosis induced by glutamate.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
