      The mechanism of copper (Cu) neurotoxicity was studied in the RCSN-3 neuronal dopaminergic cell line, derived from substantia nigra of an adult rat. The formation of a Cu-dopamine complex was accompanied by oxidation of ...
    • Baier, C. J.; Franco, D. L.; Gallegos, C.E.; Mongiat, L. A.; Dionisio, L.; Bouzat, C.; Caviedes Fernández, Pablo; Barrientos, F. J. (Elsevier, 2014)
      Chronic exposure to stress hormones has an impact on brain structures relevant to cognition. Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (AChRs) are involved in numerous cognitive processes including learning and memory formation. ...
