The role of glutamate release on voltage-dependent anion channels (VDAC)-mediated apoptosis in an eleven vessel occlusion model in rats.

Voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC) is the main protein in mitochondria-mediated apoptosis, and the modulation of VDAC may be induced by the excessive release of extracellular glutamate. This study examined the role of glutamate release on VDAC-mediated apoptosis in an eleven vessel occlusion mod...
