In Alzheimer's disease (AD) synapses degenerate and neurons die in brain regions involved in learning and memory processes. Although the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying the neurodegenerative process in AD are unclear, increasing evidence suggests roles for amyloid -peptide (A) and bio
Bax (a death-promoting member of the bcl-2 gene family), the tumor suppressor gene product p53, and the ICE/ced-3-related proteases (caspases) have all been implicated in programmed cell death in a wide variety of cell types. However, their roles in radiation-induced neuronal cell death are poorly u
