“…3B and 3C; VPA 6 h, 146.9 ± 6.7%, VPA 24 h, 146.9 ± 1.6%; SBt 6 h, 193.4.8 ± 13.6%, SBt 12 h, 167.3 ± 5.5%, n = 3 per group). Although Bcl-2 may play a major role in promoting the survival of immature neurons, Bcl-xL, another anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 family member, may also be involved (Dietz et al, 2007;Hansen et al, 2007;Le et al, 2008). The presented results show that the expression of Bcl-xL increased by VPA and SBt (Figs.…”
