## Abstract Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a mycotoxin currently detected in stored animal and human food supplies as well as in human sera worldwide. OTA has diverse toxicological effects; however, the most prominent one is the nephrotoxicity. The present investigation was conducted to determine the molecu

## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Hypoglycemia is a side effect of diabetes therapy and causes abnormal heart development. Embryonic heart cells are largely resistant to teratogenβinduced apoptosis. ## METHODS Hypoglycemia was tested for effects on cell death and cell proliferation in embryonic heart ce
Activation of glia has been observed in various neurodegenerative diseases. Excessive production of nitric oxide (NO), as a consequence of increased inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in glia, contributes to the neurodegeneration. The enhancement of intracellular stresses such as oxidative stres
Tirapazamine is a hypoxic cell cytotoxin in phase II/III trials. To further understand its mechanism of action in vivo, we examined the effect of tirapazamine on tumor energy metabolism and pH. RIF-1 and SCCVII tumors were grown subcutaneously in the flanks of C3H mice. Tumor energy metabolism, expr
## Abstract Ultraviolet (UV) light is a strong apoptotic trigger that induces caspaseβdependent biochemical changes in cells. Previously we showed that UV irradiation can activate caspaseβ3, and the subsequent cleavage and activation of p21^Cdc42/Rac^βactivated kinase 2 (PAK2) in human epidermoid c
