Salinomycin Triggers Human Colorectal Cancer HCT116 Cell Death by Targeting Unfolded Protein Responses and Autophagy Pathways [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Colorectal Research, 2023
Background: Autophagy and the unfolded protein response (UPR) are important pathways in colorectal tumorigenesis and drug resistance, rendering them as potential therapeutic targets for treating this cancer.

Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus and Lupus Nephritis: Potential Therapeutic Target

open access: yesJournal of Immunology Research, 2023
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a complex autoimmune disease. Approximately one-third to two-thirds of the patients with SLE progress to lupus nephritis (LN). The pathogenesis of SLE and LN has not yet been fully elucidated, and effective treatment

The Role of Autophagy in the Female Reproduction System: For Beginners to Experts in This Field

open access: yesBiology, 2023
Autophagy is a fundamental process involved in regulating cellular homeostasis. Autophagy has been classically discovered as a cellular process that degrades cytoplasmic components non-selectively to produce energy.
