Intramitochondrial Zn2+ accumulation via the Ca2+ uniporter contributes to acute ischemic neurodegeneration

Ca2+ and Zn2+ have both been implicated in the induction of acute ischemic neurodegeneration. We recently examined changes in intracellular Zn2+ and Ca2+ in CA1 pyramidal neurons subjected to oxygen glucose deprivation (OGD), and found that Zn2+ rises precede and contribute to the onset of terminal...
