Apoptotic cell death in neurons and glial cells: implications for Alzheimer's disease
Open accessAbstract
It is now generally accepted that massive neuronal death due to oxidative stress is a common characteristic of brains in neurodegenerative diseases. Recently, numerous apoptosis-regulating factors and multiple pathways have been identified, and apoptotic cell death has been implicated in neuronal loss in Alzheimer's disease. Although glial cells are more resistant to oxidative stress than neurons, extensive oxidative stress seems to cause apoptotic cell death in glial cells. In fact, signs of apoptosis are observed in both neurons and glial cells in the brains of patients with Alzheimer's disease. This review summarizes current findings regarding apoptotic processes and discusses the possible involvement of apoptosis-regulating factors in the pathology of Alzheimer's disease.

NPD1 inhibited Aβ42-induced apoptosis in both glial and neuronal cell populations in a stressed HN cell model.
“In turn, NPD1 inhibited Aβ42-induced apoptosis in both glial and neuronal cell populations in a stressed HN cell model are in concordance with the findings of others on apoptosis in glial and neuronal cells in AD brain (Kitamura et al., 1999; Kobayashi et al., 2004; Paradisi et al., 2004).”

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.
