Expression

Organism Comment Expression
Homo sapiens enzyme expression is down-regulated at both gene and protein levels by cytosolic dopamine in SH-SY5Y cells down

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction dopamine-associated enzyme downregulation leads to neuronal cell apoptosis Homo sapiens
physiological function enzyme overexpression protects SH-SY5Y cells from cell death and caspase 3 activation upon dopamine treatments. Cells overexpressing enzyme produce significantly less reactive oxygen species despite dopamine treatment Homo sapiens
