Neuroglobin overexpression inhibits oxygen–glucose deprivation-induced mitochondrial permeability transition pore opening in primary cultured mouse cortical neurons

Neuroglobin (Ngb) is an endogenous neuroprotective molecule against hypoxic/ischemic brain injury, but the underlying mechanisms remain largely undefined. Our recent study revealed that Ngb can bind to voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC), a regulator of mitochondria permeability transition (MPT)....
