In our in vitro model, rasagiline a selective irreversible monoamine oxidase-B (MAO-B) inhibitor, protected nerve growth factor (NGF)-differentiated PC12 cells from cell death under oxygen and glucose deprivation (OGD). The severity of the OGD insult, as expressed by cell death, was time-dependent.
It has been postulated that cellular glutamate is released into the extracellular fluid when the energy supply of the brain is compromised (i.e., anoxia or oxygen/glucose deprivation), and there the amino acid triggers the so-called excitotoxic cascade, causing neuronal death. Several mechanisms for
