About "Neurotoxicity and neuroprotection"
I think that the processes of necrosis and apoptosis involve free radical generation catalyzed by Ca++ (calcification of the mitochondrion). If I understood well, Ca++ in mitochondria behaves like Fe++ and Cu++ out of mitochondria: it catalyzes Fenton reactions.
Perhaps we could determine whether all this is restricted to neuronal mitochondria, or if all mitochondria eventually follow the same pathological/senescent course.
