Brief exposure to the selective glutamate agonist N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA; 100-300 microM, 10 min) induced significant neuronal death, which was sensitive to cycloheximide (1 microM) and the caspase-1 inhibitor, acetyl-Tyr-Val-Ala-Asp-chloromethylketone (10 microM).
Both NMDA-induced superoxide production and neurotoxicity were reduced by inhibition of mitochondrial electron transport using either sodium cyanide (1 mM), or a combination of rotenone (2 microM) and oligomycin (2 microM).

The role of poly (ADP-ribose) in apoptosis, carcinogenesis, and aging could be studied by the use of modulators of PARP activity (3-aminobenzamide, 3-nitrosobenzamide, 1% ethanol, etc.), inhibitors of poly ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase activity (ethacridine, 43 degrees C, etc.), and inhibitors of the PARP-specific protease (interleukin-1 beta converting enzyme (ICE)-like protease).
It is proposed that inhibitors of mitochondrial electron transport and/or uncouplers of oxidative phosphorylation (rotenone, amytal, amiodarone, valinomycin, etc.), when used at extremely low doses, could mimic the effects of CR in model systems.

A 24-h incubation of PC12 cells with NO donors (SNAP or NOC-18) or specific inhibitors of mitochondrial respiration (myxothiazol, rotenone, or azide), in the absence of glucose, caused total ATP depletion and resulted in 80-100% necrosis.
