GCN2 in proteostasis: structural logic, signalling networks and disease

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Threats to protein synthesis activate the kinase GCN2, initiating the integrated stress response (ISR). GCN2 is triggered by stalled ribosomes and uncharged tRNAs, which accumulate when amino acids are scarce. The ISR adjusts cellular physiology by promoting redox balance, protein quality control, and mitochondrial optimisation.

From hepatic to hematopoietic: LRH‐1's expanding cellular repertoire to the immune system

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The nuclear receptor LRH‐1 is a well‐characterized regulator of endodermal tissue. Yet, increasing evidence indicates that LRH‐1, although expressed at low levels, is also a critical regulator of the hematopoietic system. LRH‐1 regulates the immune system by contributing to immune cell‐specific functions.

Ubiquitin and ubiquitin‐like modifications in the endoplasmic reticulum stress response

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress activates various proteostasis control processes, including the unfolded protein response, ribosome‐associated quality control, and ER‐associated degradation. Ubiquitin and ubiquitin‐like modifications dynamically regulate these processes to determine cell fate, promoting adaptation or inducing cell death.

Factor inhibiting ATF4-mediated transcription is a novel leucine zipper transcriptional repressor that regulates bone mass

open access: yes, 2007
Skeletal development is a complex event that requires a delicate balance between bone formation and bone resorption. Multiple transcription factors expressed in the bone-forming cells, osteoblasts, play crucial roles during the process of bone formation.

One day of environment‐induced heat stress causes injury to the murine kidney

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Environment‐induced heat stress (EIHS) results from sustained body temperature elevation owing to prolonged exposure to heat and humidity. We hypothesized that EIHS would cause kidney injury and cellular dysfunction. To test this hypothesis, female C57 mice were exposed to EIHS (n = 14; 37.6°C, 42.0% relative humidity) or thermoneutral (TN ...

ITCH‐Mediated Ubiquitination and Degradation of THBS1: A Key Mechanism for Enhancing Mitochondrial Biogenesis and Alleviating Mouse Skeletal Muscle Atrophy

open access: yesActa Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Skeletal muscle atrophy is tightly associated with maladaptive alterations in mitochondrial function and morphology. Itchy E3 ubiquitin‐protein ligase (ITCH) modulates mitochondria, and thrombospondin 1 (THBS1) positively regulates muscle atrophy, but their roles in muscle atrophy are unclear. Methods A muscle atrophy model was established

Targeting the ATF4 pathway in cancer therapy.

open access: yes, 2012
INTRODUCTION: Activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4) is a member of the activating transcription factor family. ATF4 expression is increased in response to a diverse array of microenvironmental stresses including amino acid depletion, oxidative stress ...

Pharmacological inhibition of the PERK pathway modulates hepatocellular carcinoma growth and immune signaling

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, Volume 16, Issue 9, Page 1766-1785, September 2026.
Pharmacological inhibition of PERK in a DEN‐induced mouse model of liver cancer does not reduce tumor burden but alters cellular stress signaling. Despite blocking PERK activity, downstream stress responses, including CHOP expression, remain active, suggesting compensatory mechanisms within the unfolded protein response that may influence tumor ...

The factor VII activating protease G511E (Marburg) variant and cardiovascular risk [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
A previous study had shown a strong relationship between a variant in factor VII activating protease (FSAP G511E) and advanced carotid atheroma. In-vitro, the variant has reduced fibrinolytic but normal pro-coagulant activity, which may constitute a ...

Monoallelic POLR3A Variants Cause Early‐Onset Peripheral Neuropathy

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, Volume 100, Issue 3, Page 655-671, September 2026.
Objective Biallelic variants in genes encoding the RNA polymerase III complex (Pol III) cause a spectrum of neurological disorders primarily affecting the central nervous system. Monoallelic variants have been reported in the POLR3B subunit only, associated with neurodevelopmental disorder, epilepsy, and peripheral neuropathy.
