The neuroprotective effects of virally-derived caspase inhibitors p35 and crmA following a necrotic insult
Neuronal excitotoxicity causes energetic impairment and the ensuing cell death has historically been regarded as necrotic. Recent findings, however, indicate that apoptosis may participate in excitotoxicity. Here we examined the neuroprotective mechanisms of the well-characterized viral caspase inhi...
