Effect of iron on the activation of the MAPK/ERK pathway in PC12 neuroblastoma cells

Effect of iron on the activation of the MAPK/ERK pathway in PC12 neuroblastoma cells

Recent evidence suggests that reactive oxygen species function as second messenger molecules in normal physiological processes. For example, activation of N-Methyl-D-Aspartate receptor results in the production of ROS, which appears to be critical for synaptic plasticity, one of the cellular mechani...
