Rotenone inhibits ornithine decarboxylase activity equally well as induced by TPA, insulin-like growth factor I and 17 beta-oestradiol.

Since insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) interferes with a cell's apoptotic machinery when subjected to several stressful conditions, it is demonstrated here for the first time that IGF-1 effectively protects lymphocytes against rotenone through PI-3K/Akt activation, down-regulation of p53 and maintenance of mitochondrial membrane potential independently of ROS generation.

We show that a short 24-amino acid C-terminal peptide of MGF (MGF24) upregulates heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) expression and protects SH-SY5Y cells against apoptosis and cell loss induced by three DA cell-specific neurotoxins: 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA), 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP (+)), and rotenone.
