Results show that acute hyperammonemia induces hypophosphorylation of neuronal and glial intermediate filaments proteins in cerebral cortex of 21-day-old rats without affecting the hippocampus. In slices of cerebral cortex of 21-day-old animals, the cytoskeleton of astrocytes is more susceptible than neurons to ammonia toxicity, and this effect is mediated by PP2B and PP1 activities.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
