Methamphetamine induces a greater neurodegenerative effect in male versus female mice. In order to investigate this sex difference we studied the involvement of Akt and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK1/2) in methamphetamine toxicity as a…
Mate mice were reported to display greater methamphetamine-induced neurotoxicity than females. The present study evaluated the involvement of phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3K)/Akt and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK1/2) pathways in this…
