The acute neurotoxicity of mefloquine may be mediated through a disruption of calcium homeostasis and ER function in vitro

BACKGROUND: There is no established biochemical basis for the neurotoxicity of mefloquine. We investigated the possibility that the acute in vitro neurotoxicity of mefloquine might be mediated through a disruptive effect of the drug on endoplasmic reticulum (ER) calcium homeostasis. METHODS: Laser s...
