P53 and Bax implication in NMDA induced-apoptosis in mouse hippocampus

Seven days after in vivo intrahippocampal administration of NMDA, 3′-OH DNA fragmentations and Bax protein expression were detected in hippocampal neurons of p53+/+ but not p53−/− transgenic mice. Interestingly, neurons showing pycnosis, an early apoptotic phenomena, were present in all genotypes. T...

Zusammenfassung:Seven days after in vivo intrahippocampal administration of NMDA, 3′-OH DNA fragmentations and Bax protein expression were detected in hippocampal neurons of p53+/+ but not p53−/− transgenic mice. Interestingly, neurons showing pycnosis, an early apoptotic phenomena, were present in all genotypes. These results confirm that apoptotic 3′OH DNA fragmentations and Bax protein induction during NMDA-induced apoptosis in adult hippocampal neurons are p53 dependent.
