Activation of caspase-8 by tumour necrosis factor receptor 1 is necessary for caspase-3 activation and apoptosis in oxygen–glucose deprived cultured cortical cells

TNF-α has been reported to be relevant in stroke-induced neuronal death. However the precise function of TNF-α in brain ischemia remains controversial since there are data supporting either a detrimental or a protective effect. Here we show that TNF-α is released after oxygen–glucose deprivation (OG...
