摘要: Studies on primary cultures of newborn rodent neurons have suggested that neuronal death induced by unconjugated bilirubin (UCB) is mainly apoptotic in nature. We exposed a human teratocarcinoma-derived cell line, NT2-N neurons, to different concentrations UCB and albumin at 1.5 molar ratio used multiple, independent measures damage evaluate injury after 6, 24, 48 h. Low doses (0.66, 2, 5 microM) moderate loss 3-4[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyltetrazoliumbromide (MTT) cleavage accompanied delayed morphologic changes consistent with apoptosis (2 microM). Moderate (10 25 resulted early (6 h) necrosis subset while remaining underwent progressive impairment MTT increasing lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release predominantly apoptosis. High (100 severe cleavage, extensive LDH release, within 6 Used as positive control for apoptosis, 2 microM STS over the entire observation period. DNA electrophoresis h was compatible both treatment
