Taurine suppresses the spread of cell death in electrically coupled RPE cells
PURPOSE: To determine whether taurine exerts a protective effect on retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells exposed to a cytotoxic agent, cytochrome C (cyC), shown previously to induce apoptosis and produce cell death in electrically coupled neighboring cells. METHODS: Monolayer cultures of confluent...
