## Abstract Several neurotrophic factors, including brain‐derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), and neurotransmitters, such as glutamate, may influence neuronal apoptotic death. Rat cerebellar granule neurons (CGN) cultured in low potassium (5 or 10 mM KCl) for more than 5 days in vitro (DIV) die apo
