A guide to understanding endoplasmic reticulum stress in metabolic disorders
Background The global rise of metabolic disorders, such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease, demands a thorough molecular understanding of the cellular mechanisms that govern health or disease.

Lipopolysaccharide, high glucose and saturated fatty acids induce endoplasmic reticulum stress in cultured primary human adipocytes : salicylate alleviates this stress [PDF]
Recent findings indicate that endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is significantly increased in adipose tissue of obese human subjects and is critical to the initiation and integration of pathways of inflammation and insulin action.

THE ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM [PDF]
and (b) the vesicular character of its component elements, were already clearly noted in its first description. In subsequent papers, Porter and his collaborators described the preferential concentration of the vesicular elements of the reticulum in the endoplasm, and their scarcity or absence in the supposedly exoplasmic periphery of the cytoplasm (2,

Uterine Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress and Its Unfolded Protein Response May Regulate Caspase 3 Activation in the Pregnant Mouse Uterus [PDF]
We have previously proposed that uterine caspase-3 may modulate uterine contractility in a gestationally regulated fashion. The objective of this study was to determine the mechanism by which uterine caspase-3 is activated and consequently controlled in ...

Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress and Inflammation [PDF]
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress due to the presence of misfolded or unfolded proteins in the ER invokes a fundamental biological response, termed the unfolded protein response (UPR). The UPR is orchestrated by three main proximal effectors, of which the IRE1/XBP1 pathway represents the evolutionarily most conserved one.

Endoplasmic reticulum : shape and function in stress translation [PDF]
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a very versatile organelle. Besides its major role as the gateway to the secretory pathway the ER is central to adaptation against abiotic and biotic stress.

Epithelial-mesenchymal transition induces endoplasmic-reticulum-stress response in human colorectal tumor cells. [PDF]
Tumor cells are stressed by unfavorable environmental conditions like hypoxia or starvation. Driven by the resulting cellular stress tumor cells undergo epithelial-mesenchymal transition.
