Abstract excerpt
Putative functions of the cellular prion protein, PrPC, include resistance to oxidative stress, copper uptake, cell adhesion, and cell signaling. Here, we report NADPH oxidase-dependent reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and extracellular regulated kinases 1/2 (ERK1/2) phosphorylation on PrPC stimulation in the 1C11 neuroectodermal precursor, in its neuronal differentiated progenies, and in GT1-7...
