Figure 5

Effect of taurine on glutamate-induced elevated expression of GRP78 and Caspase-12 by Western blot analysis. Primary cortical neurons were preincubated with 25 mM taurine for 1 hour, and then exposed to 100 uM glutamate for 4 hours. Expression of GRP78 protein and caspase 12 was analyzed by Western blot assay. Beta-actin was included to show equal loading. C: Control; glu: Glutamate-treated group; tau+ glu: Same as glu group except pretreated with taurine.
