Neuroglobin upregulation induced by 17β-estradiol sequesters cytocrome c in the mitochondria preventing H(2)O(2)-induced apoptosis of neuroblastoma cells

The sex steroid hormone 17β-estradiol (E2) upregulates the levels of neuroglobin (NGB), a new neuroprotectant globin, to elicit its neuroprotective effect against H(2)O(2)-induced apoptosis. Several mechanisms could be proposed to justify the NGB involvement in E2 prevention of stress-induced apopto...
