Abstract excerpt
Moderate, transient oxidative stress is achieved in SH-SY5Y cells using tertiary butylhydroperoxide as oxidant. Over a recovery period of 24 h, the enzymatic activity and protein levels of the acetylcholinesterase (AChE) splice variants tailed AChE (AChE-T) and readthrough AChE (AChE-R) are monitored. Their time-dependent correlation to pro- and anti-apoptotic factors, namely caspase 3 and Bcl-2, respectively, as...
