Sustained alteration in [Ca(2+)]i triggers neuronal death. We examined morphological and signaling events of Ca(2+)-deficiency-induced neuronal death. Cortical cell cultures exposed to 20 microM 1,2-bis(2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid (BAPTA-AM), an intracellular calcium chelator, underwent neuronal apoptosis within 12 h that was evident
