Possible Involvement of Both Endoplasmic Reticulumand Mitochondria-Dependent Pathways in Thapsigargin-Induced Apoptosis in Human Neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y Cells

Recently, it has been shown that endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress causes apoptosis. However, the mechanism of the ER stress-dependent pathway is not fully understood. In human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells, we detected a caspase-12-like protein that has a molecular mass (approximately 60 kDa) similar...
