“…Relatively low doses of MPP + (1-150 μM) were capable of inducing damage to cells in culture, including rat cerebellar granule neurons (Du et al, 1997; Gonzalez-Polo et al, 2001; Harbison et al, 2011), MN9D (Choi et al, 1999; Chu et al, 2005; Luo et al, 2009), and rat ventral mesencephalic neurons (Dodel et al, 1998; Hartmann et al, 2000; Han et al, 2003, Jourdi et al, 2009), while almost 1000-fold higher doses of MPP + (mM range) were found deleterious for SH-SY5Y, PC12, N-27, and NT2 cells (Anantharam et al, 2007; Domingues et al, 2008; Wales et al, 2008; Cheng et al, 2009; Kim et al, 2009). These findings suggested diverse intracellular signaling pathways in MPP + -neurotoxicity.…”
