Erythropoietin prevents PC12 cells from 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium ion-induced apoptosis via the Akt/GSK-3β/caspase-3 mediated signaling pathway

Nerve growth factor prevents 1-methyl-4-

Nerve growth factor (NGF) mediates a variety of nerve cell actions through receptor tyrosine kinase TrkA. It has been revealed that the Akt pathway contributes to the prevention of apoptosis. It is thought that Parkinson's disease involves apoptosis, and NGF prevents apoptosis in an in vivo model sy
