Abstract excerpt
Mechanisms of preferential loss of cholinergic neurons in the course of neurodegenerative diseases are unknown. Therefore, we investigated whether differentiation-evoked changes in acetyl-CoA and acetylcholine metabolism contribute to the susceptibility of cholinergic neuroblastoma to cytotoxic effects of Al. In SN56 cells differentiated with retinoic acid and dibutyryl cAMP (DC), pyruvate utilization and...
