Induction and modulation of cerebellar granule neuron death by E2F-1M J O'Hare
Neuroscience Research Institute, University of Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
J Biol Chem 275:25358-64. 2000..These results indicate that E2F-1 expression is sufficient to promote neuronal apoptosis and that endogenous E2F-1 modulates the death of CGNs evoked by low K(+)...
Inhibitors of trypsin-like serine proteases prevent DNA damage-induced neuronal death by acting upstream of the mitochondrial checkpoint and of p53 inductionH J Rideout
Department of Neurology, Columbia University, New York, NY 10032, USA
Neuroscience 107:339-52. 2001..We conclude that therapeutic strategies based on serine protease inhibition may be useful in preventing neuronal cell death...
Caspase 3 deficiency rescues peripheral nervous system defect in retinoblastoma nullizygous miceM T Simpson
Neuroscience Research Institute, University of Ottawa, Ottawa, Ontario, K1H 8M5, Canada
J Neurosci 21:7089-98. 2001..These findings suggest that PNS neurons are dependent on caspase 3 for the execution of apoptosis and that caspase 3 may serve as a key therapeutic target for neuroprotection after injury of this cell type...
Involvement of caspase 3 in apoptotic death of cortical neurons evoked by DNA damageE Keramaris
Neuroscience Research Institute, University of Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
Mol Cell Neurosci 15:368-79. 2000..This suggests that the requirement for caspase 3 in death of neurons evoked by DNA damage may differ depending upon the developmental state of the cell...

Neuroscience Research Institute, University of Ottawa, Ottawa, Ontario K1H 8M5, Canada
J Biol Chem 275:33593-600. 2000..Furthermore, our data underscore the importance of the Rb regulatory pathway in neuronal development and cell cycle regulation, independent of CKI sequestration...
c-Jun mediates axotomy-induced dopamine neuron death in vivoS J Crocker
Neuroscience Research Institute, University of Ottawa, Ottawa, ON K1H 8M5, Canada
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 98:13385-90. 2001..Ad.c-JunDN also delayed the degeneration of dopaminergic nigral axons in the striatum after MFB axotomy. Taken together, these findings suggest that activation of c-Jun mediates the loss of dopamine neurons after axotomy injury...
