Regulation of Nrf2 by Mitochondrial Reactive Oxygen Species in Physiology and Pathology

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2020
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are byproducts of aerobic respiration and signaling molecules that control various cellular functions. Nrf2 governs the gene expression of endogenous antioxidant synthesis and ROS-eliminating enzymes in response to various ...

Neurodegeneration: Keeping ATF4 on a Tight Leash [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2017
Activation of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and ER stress response, also known as the unfolded protein response (UPR), is common to various degenerative disorders. Therefore, signaling components of the UPR are currently emerging as potential targets for intervention and treatment of human diseases.

Stem-loop induced ribosome queuing in the uORF2/ATF4 overlap fine-tunes stress-induced human ATF4 translational control

open access: yesCell Reports, 2023
ATF4 is a master transcriptional regulator of the integrated stress response leading cells towards adaptation or death. ATF4's induction under stress was thought to be mostly due to delayed translation reinitiation, where the reinitiation-permissive uORF1 plays a key role.

High ATF4 Expression Is Associated With Poor Prognosis, Amino Acid Metabolism, and Autophagy in Gastric Cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2021
BackgroundThe role of activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4) underlying gastric cancer (GC) remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to investigate the expression levels and biological functions of ATF4 in GC.MethodsExpression of ATF4 was ...

Regulation of arginine transport by GCN2 eIF2 kinase is important for replication of the intracellular parasite Toxoplasma gondii [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Toxoplasma gondii is a prevalent protozoan parasite that can infect any nucleated cell but cannot replicate outside of its host cell. Toxoplasma is auxotrophic for several nutrients including arginine, tryptophan, and purines, which it must acquire from ...

EXtENDINg β cell survival by UPRegulating ATF4 translation [PDF]

open access: yesCell Metabolism, 2006
In this issue of Cell Metabolism, Daniel Drucker and colleagues (Yusta et al., 2006) explore how the incretin mimetic exendin-4 improves beta cell function and survival during ER stress. Their findings suggest that protein kinase A signaling elicited by GLP-1 receptor activation differentially modulates one arm of the unfolded protein response (UPR ...

Asparagine promotes cancer cell proliferation through use as an amino acid exchange factor. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Cellular amino acid uptake is critical for mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1) activation and cell proliferation. However, the regulation of amino acid uptake is not well-understood.

Brown adipocyte ATF4 activation improves thermoregulation and systemic metabolism [PDF]

open access: yesCell Reports, 2021
Cold-induced thermogenesis in endotherms demands adaptive thermogenesis fueled by mitochondrial respiration and Ucp1-mediated uncoupling in multilocular brown adipocytes (BAs). However, dietary regulation of thermogenesis in BAs isn't fully understood.

Dynamic induction of drug resistance through a stress-responsive enhancer in acute myeloid leukemia

open access: yesMolecular & Cellular Oncology, 2020
The drug efflux pump ABCB1 (ATP binding cassette subfamily B member 1) confers chemotherapy resistance in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). We recently identified an ABCB1 enhancer that is activated in response to a range of cellular stressors, including ...
