J Neurosci Res. 2009 Feb;87(2):576-85.
We found that DA neuroprotective effects of nicotine were inhibited by dihydro-beta-erythroidine (DHbetaE), alpha-bungarotoxin (alphaBuTx), and/or PI3K-Akt/PKB (protein serine/threonine kinase B) inhibitors, demonstrating that rotenone-toxicity on DA neurons are inhibited via activation of alpha4beta2 or alpha7 nAChRs-PI3K-Akt/PKB pathway or pathways. |
