  1. 01LabIn vitro (cells)Mechanism

    In neuronal cells, constitutively active JNK-induced cell death was suppressed by humanin, whereas pertussis toxin did not suppress it.

    In plain wordsIn lab neuron cells, humanin reduced cell death driven by an active form of the JNK enzyme.

    Summary · context
    (ii) constitutively active (ca) JNK caused neuronal cell death and (iii) the pharmacological profile of caJNK-mediated cell death closely coincided with that of APP-mediated cell death.
