Targeting the unfolded protein response in disease
Abstract: Stress induced by the accumulation of unfolded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a feature of specialized secretory cells and is also observed in many diseases, including cancer, diabetes, autoimmune conditions, liver disorders, obesity and neurodegenerative disorders. Cellular adaptation to ER stress is achieved by the activation of the unfolded protein response, which is an integrated signal transduction pathway that modulates many aspects of ER physiology. When these mechanisms of adaptation are…

“…Our microarray data showed UPR activation specifically in GM1‐NPCs (see supplementary material, Figure S2). Expression levels of many UPR components were altered, in accordance with previous reports . Notably, UPR was not clearly stimulated in GM1 fibroblasts or in GM1‐iPSCs.…”

“…Similarly, a plethora of IRE-1 RNase inhibitors (eg, 4μ8C and STF-083010) are used for anticancer therapy because of their ability to induce apoptosis. 44 Although functional evidence of IRE-1 in the heart is not available, a previous study in cardiac XBP-1s overexpression mice ascertained a protective role of XBP-1s in combating ischemia and reperfusion injury, 45 which supports our data.…”

“…Additionally, both the transcript and protein levels of MANF-1 increased in response to ER stress, which is consistent with studies in other systems [9,[48][49][50][51]. As ER-UPR activation helps cells to manage stress through multiple mechanisms, including enhanced protein folding and clearance of nonfunctional proteins [7,52], we examined whether manf-1 mutant animals have defects in these processes. The results showed increased protein aggregation in PD and HD models that express human α-Synuclein and polyQ, respectively.…”
