Zusammenfassung: | A tissue culture model of oxygen/glucose deprivation induced cell death is provided, which is useful in the analysis of the mechanisms of cell death following brain ischemia, and for screening anti-ischemic drugs. By adopting the in vivo concentrations of calcium, potassium and hydrogen ions to the incubation medium a model is established that shows conspicuous similarities with the temporal and special development of cell death in vivo: selective and delayed CA1 damage, a damage mitigated by blockade of the NMDA and AMPA receptors, and a striking augmentation of damage by high levels of glucose. |
