Previously, we showed that the oxidant chemical, tert-butylhydroperoxide (t-BuOOH), induces a mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) in intact hepatocytes, causing lethal cell injury. Here, we investigated the role of mitochondrial free Ca2+ in t-BuOOH cytotoxicity to 1-day-cultured rat hepatoc

The mitochondrial permeability transition (mPT) has been implicated in both excitotoxic and apoptotic neuronal cell death, despite the fact that it has not been previously identified in neurons. To study the mPT in hippocampal neurons, cultures were loaded with the mitochondrial dye JC-1 and observe
## Abstract Ammonia is a toxin that has been strongly implicated in the pathogenesis of hepatic encephalopathy (HE), and the astrocyte appears to be the principal target of ammonia toxicity. The specific neurochemical mechanisms underlying HE, however, remain elusive. One of the suggested mechanism
