## Abstract The prion protein peptide PrP106β126 induces cell apoptosis through mechanisms involving production of intracellular reactive oxygen species. The present study investigated the effects of edaravone, a potent free radical scavenger in clinical use, on cell cytotoxicity induced by PrP106β

## Abstract A significant body of evidence has been provided to support the hypothesis that oxidant stress may be responsible for the degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta in Parkinson's disease. Apomorphine, a dopamine D~1~/D~2~βreceptor agonist in the clinical
## Abstract Interleukinβ1 beta (ILβ1Ξ²) is one of the main cytokines involved in the inflammatory response; it has multiple effects that can contribute to cell damage, one of which is the upregulation of the inducible form of nitric oxide (NO) synthase (NOS2) in certain cell types. We demonstrated p
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
