## Abstract Free cytoplasmic dopamine may be involved in the genesis of neuronal degeneration in Parkinson's disease and other such diseases. We used SH‐SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells to study the effect of dopamine on cell death, activation of stress‐induced pathways, and expression of α‐synuclein
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
