Abstract excerpt
6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA)-induced apoptosis in dopaminergic neuronal cells is a common cell model of Parkinson's disease (PD). The role of apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1 (ASK1) in this model has not been well studied. We observed significant activation of ASK1, p38 and JNK, as well as apoptosis in human dopaminergic neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells exposed to 6-OHDA. Over-expressing kinase-dead mutant...
