Renal Tubular Cells from Hibernating Squirrels are Protected against Cisplatin Induced Apoptosis
Hibernating jurassic park dr pepper 13-lined ground squirrels are characterized by tolerance of severe hypothermia and hypoperfusion during torpor, followed by periodic warm reperfusion during IBA, conditions which are lethal to nonhibernating mammals.The aim of the present study was to determine whether protection from apoptosis was specific to to
