1 M239V-PS2 exerted three forms of cytotoxicity: one was sensitive to both an antioxidant glutathione-ethyl-ester (GEE) and a caspase inhibitor Ac-DEVD-CHO (DEVD); the second was sensitive to GEE but resistant to DEVD; and the third was resistant to both. DEVD presenilin 2 Homo sapiens

3 The GEE/DEVD-sensitive cytotoxicity by M239V-PS2 was likely through NADPH oxidase and the GEE-sensitive/DEVD-resistant cytotoxicity through xanthine oxidase (XO). DEVD presenilin 2 Homo sapiens
