Various mitochondrial inhibitors are tested in neuroblastoma cells. Their effects on the mit-proteins and some cytoskeletal proteins are compared to those of CCA, a differentiation inducer. This comparison favours the hypothesis that the primary effect of CCA induction is an

The effect of an anticonvulsant compound (Simiand, Ferrandes, Lacolle and Eymard, 1979), 1-methyl cyclohexane carboxylic acid (CCA), upon the electrical activity of Purkinje cells (PCs) was studied in the cerebellar cortex of the rat in vivo. Cyclohexane carboxylic acid (200-400

The evolution of three major mit-proteins was followed in neuroblastoma cells cultured in different conditions of differentiation. 1 methyl cyclohexane carboxylic acid (CCA) was found to stimulate the synthesis of the three mit-protein markers. This result, compared to the effects
