## Abstract Exposure of the brain to cadmium ions (Cd^2+^) is believed to lead to neurological disorders of the central nervous system (CNS). In this study, we tested the hypothesis that astrocytes, the major CNSβsupporting cells, are resistant to Cd^2+^βinduced injury compared with cortical neuron
Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) inhibits classical mitochondrial pathways of apoptosis by either directly stabilizing mitochondrial membranes or modulating specific upstream targets. Furthermore, UDCA regulates apoptosis-related genes from transforming growth factor β€1 (TGF-β€1)-induced hepatocyte apopto
