## Abstract In vivo, the neurotoxin MPTP is oxidated to MPP^+^, which is toxic to dopaminergic neurons. In this paper, we have used MPP^+^ as a tool to evoke neurotoxicity in the PC12 cell line and investigate the intracellular events that are involved. A cytotoxicity test, performed on undifferent
## Abstract Amyloid β peptide (Aβ) is implicated in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The peptide is toxic to neurons, possibly by causing initial synaptic dysfunction and neuronal membrane dystrophy, promoted by increased cellular Ca^2+^. Calpain (Ca^2+^‐dependent protease) and caspase
