text: Bilirubin aggravates neurotoxic effects by potentiating the activity of ASICs To directly test whether bilirubin works via ASICs to exacerbate cell death, we performed cell injury assays in MVN slices from WT and Asic1a−/− mice by fluorescence staining of alive and dead cells (with basal cell death about ~40% likely due to acute brain slice preparations; fig.
