Mitochondrial fragmentation is involved in methamphetamine-induced cell death in rat hippocampal neural progenitor cells.
Methamphetamine (METH) induces neurodegeneration through damage and apoptosis of dopaminergic nerve terminals and striatal cells, presumably via cross-talk between the endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria-dependent death cascades. However, the effects of METH on neural progenitor cells (NPC), an i...
