Theprocessis generallyinitiatedby the application of carefully controlled conditions such as temperature and pH, so as to achieve cell death with out inactivating the naturalhydrolyticenzyme.
Peroxynitrites contribute to the hyperphosphorylation of tau proteins by oxidating g-protein coupled receptors and trysoine kinase receptors preventing protein kinase C and AKT from inactivating the enzyme GSK3 which is necessary to prevent the hyperphosphorylation of tau proteins.
