Subtoxic levels of hydrogen peroxide induce brain-derived neurotrophic factor expression to protect PC12 cells
2014
Background
Oxidative stress is one of the mechanisms underlying pathogenesis in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease. Generally, oxidative stress represents cell toxicity; however, we recently found that oxidative stress promotes the expression of growth factor progranulin (PGRN) in HT22 murine hippocampus cells, thereby protecting the HT22 cells. In this study, we attempted to clarify whether a similar system exists in the other neuronal cell model, rat pheochromocytoma (PC12) cells.
