An increasing body of evidence points to a key role of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in acute and chronic neurodegenerative conditions. Extensive ER stress can trigger neuronal apoptosis, but the signaling pathways that regulate this cell death remain unclear. In the present study, we demonstrate that PUMA, a Bcl-2 homology 3 (BH3)-only member of the Bcl-2 family, is transcriptionally activated in cortical neurons by ER stress and is essential for ER-stress-induced cell death.

We previously reported that delayed administration of the general cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor flavopiridol following global ischemia provided transient neuroprotection and improved behavioral performance. However, it failed to provide longer term protection. In the present study, we investigate the ability of delayed flavopiridol in combination with delayed minocycline, another neuroprotectant to provide sustained protection following global ischemia.
