Excitotoxin-induced caspase-3 activation and microtubule disintegration in axons is inhibited by taxol

BACKGROUND: Axon degeneration, a key pathological event in many neurodegenerative diseases and injury, can be induced by somatodendritic excitotoxin exposure. It is currently unclear, however, whether excitotoxin-induced axon degeneration is mechanistically similar to Wallerian degeneration, which o...
