LT-mediated cytoskeletal alterations, present after the first 24 hours, were sustained even when a depolymerization / repolymerization cycle was induced by addition and subsequnent removal of depolymerizing agents.
Treatment of astrocytes with both cocaine and gp120 resulted in a transient time-dependent increase in phosphorylation of JNK, p38 and ERK (Figure 5) with maximal activation at 15 min post-treatment and a decline thereafter that was sustained even at 48 h compared with control cells (Figure 5).
