Abstract
Three hours after administration of the pro-oxidant 2-cyclohexen-1-one, calpain activity was significantly reduced in the brain of young rats, but not in the brain of adult rats, and cathepsin D activity remained unchanged. Addition of isovalerylcarnitine to the incubation medium increased calpain activity 5-7-fold, counteracting the effect of the pro-oxidant.Entities:
