PERK
RCN1 suppresses ER stress-induced apoptosis via calcium homeostasis and PERK-CHOP signaling
368 views | Nov 24 2018
Xu S et al. indicated that RCN1, a target of NF-κB, suppresses ER calcium release by binding to IP3R1 and decreases the UPR, thereby inhibiting ER stress-induced apoptosis. [Read the Full Post]
Calcineurin complex isolated from T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) cells identifies new signaling pathways including mTOR/AKT/S6K whose inhibition synergize with calcineurin inhibition to promote T-ALL cell death

Tosello V et al. identified AKT inhibition as a novel promising drug combination to potentiate the pro-apoptotic effects of Cn inhibitors. [Read the Full Post]
Etoposide Induces Apoptosis in Activated Human Hepatic Stellate Cells via ER Stress
644 views | May 31 2018
Wang C et al. demonstrated that VP-16 exerts a proapoptotic effect on LX-2 cells and has an antifibrogenic effect on collagen deposition, suggesting a new strategy for the treatment of liver fibrosis. [Read the Full Post]
Glucocorticoids Prevent Enterovirus 71 Capsid Protein VP1 Induced Calreticulin Surface Exposure by Alleviating Neuronal ER Stress
588 views | May 29 2018
Hu DD et al. identified VP1-promoted Ecto-CRT upregulation as a novel mechanism of EV71-induced neuronal cell damage and highlight the potential of the use of glucocorticoids to treat severe HFMD patients with CNS complications. [Read the Full Post]
Pharmacological Inhibition of PERK Attenuates Early Brain Injury After Subarachnoid Hemorrhage in Rats Through the Activation of Akt
640 views | May 19 2018
Yan F et al. found that PERK might serve as a promising target for future therapeutic intervention. [Read the Full Post]
4-Hydroxy-2-nonenal induces apoptosis by activating ERK1/2 signaling and depleting intracellular glutathione in intestinal epithelial cells
885 views | Apr 08 2018
Ji Y et al. provided new insights into a functional role of MKP-1 in oxidative stress-induced cell death by regulating ERK1/2 MAP kinase in intestinal epithelial cells. [Read the Full Post]
Targeting Autophagy Sensitizes BRAF-Mutant Thyroid Cancer to Vemurafenib
598 views | Apr 05 2018
Wang W et al. demonstrated that vemurafenib induces ER stress response-mediated autophagy in thyroid cancer and autophagy inhibition may be a beneficial strategy to sensitize BRAF-mutant thyroid cancer to vemurafenib. [Read the Full Post]
Late-stage inhibition of autophagy enhances calreticulin surface exposure
687 views | Mar 07 2018
Li DD et al. highlight the potential of the combined use of ER stress inducers and autophagy late-stage inhibitors to reestablish and strengthen both the CRT exposure and immunogenicity of chemotherapeutic agents induced death cells. [Read the Full Post]
AKT is indispensable for coordinating Par-4/JNK cross talk in p21 downmodulation during ER stress
885 views | Jan 10 2018
Rasool RU et al. found that 3-AWA inhibits colorectal tumor growth and formation of colorectal polyps at a tolerable dose, similar to the first-line drug for colorectal cancer-5-fluorouracil. [Read the Full Post]
Palmitate increases musclin gene expression through activation of PERK signaling pathway in C2C12 myotubes
0 views | Feb 14 2017
Gu N, et al.'s findings suggest that palmitate increases musclin gene expression via the activation of the PERK signaling pathway in C2C12 myotubes. [Read the Full Post]
