“…The interactions between signaling through the Na + /K + -ATPase and cell death seem to be both complex and variable, depending on cell type and on treatment conditions (Winnicka et al, 2007; Newman et al, 2008). It should also be noted that beyond death signals, the Na + /K + -ATPase signal cascade seems to be involved in a variety of cell biological functions including adhesion and differentiation (Zhang et al, 1991; Numazawa et al, 1994; Kawazoe et al, 1999; Ghoumari et al, 2006; Larre et al, 2006; Rodrigues-Mascarenhas et al, 2006). …”
