Neuroprotective effect of selumetinib on acrolein-induced neurotoxicity
Abstract Abnormal accumulation of acrolein, an α, β unsaturated aldehyde has been reported as one pathological cause of the CNS neurodegenerative diseases. In the present study, the neuroprotective effect of selumetinib (a MEK–ERK inhibitor) on acrolein-induced neurotoxicity was investigated in vitr...
