1 Puerarin Attenuates N-Methyl-D-aspartic Acid-induced Apoptosis and Retinal Ganglion Cell Damage Through the JNK/p38 MAPK Pathway. N-Methylaspartate mitogen-activated protein kinase 8 Rattus norvegicus
2 Puerarin pretreatment also effectively inhibited NMDA-induced JNK and p38 phosphorylation in the RGCs, whereas pretreatment with either JNK agonist anisomycin or p38 agonist P79350 could significantly compensate the effects caused by puerarin. N-Methylaspartate mitogen-activated protein kinase 8 Rattus norvegicus
3 CONCLUSIONS: The present results of this study demonstrated that puerarin protected against NMDA-induced apoptosis and RGCs damage through the JNK/p38 MAPK pathway. N-Methylaspartate mitogen-activated protein kinase 8 Rattus norvegicus
