## Abstract Neuroblastoma is the most common extracranial solid tumor in children causing death at preβschool age, as no cure has yet been developed. We investigated the proteolytic mechanisms for apoptosis in human malignant (Nβtype) neuroblastoma SHβSY5Y cells following exposure to flavonoids suc

## Abstract Caspaseβ2 has been reported to play a role in the cell death observed under a number of different conditions; however, it is unclear whether caspaseβ2 plays a role in cell death triggered by endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. The purpose of this study was to determine whether caspaseβ2
A genetic defect in complex I of the mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC) is implicated in the etiology of Parkinson's disease (PD), and has been studied in cybrid mitochondrial transgene cells based on the SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma. We sought to characterize further the mechanisms and time cour
Calpains have importance in human neurodegenerative disease pathogenesis, but these mechanisms are difficult to study in postmortem tissues. To establish a cellular model of the human calpain and calpastatin system, we characterized calpain I, calpain II, and calpastatin in SH-SY5Y human neuroblasto
