Endoplasmic reticulum storage diseases

Swiss Medical Weekly, 2002
The endoplasmic reticulum represents the cell's quality control site for accurate folding of secretory and membrane proteins. Quality control is achieved through the association of ER chaperones with unfolded or misfolded polypeptide chains. In the ER stress response, upregulation of chaperones occurs as a consequence of misfolded proteins accumulating

Acacetin reduces endoplasmic reticulum stress through the P‐eNOS/PERK signaling pathway to attenuate MGO‐induced vascular endothelial cell dysfunction

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We investigated a potential protective effect of acacetin, a naturally occurring flavonoid, against methylglyoxal (MGO)‐induced endothelial dysfunction in human umbilical vein endothelial cells and its mechanism of action. Acacetin can could inhibit MGO‐induced intracellular calcium ion influx, enhance the expression levels of phosphorylated ...

Experimental determination of the membrane topology of the Plasmodium protease Plasmepsin V.

PLoS ONE, 2015
The malaria parasite exports hundreds of proteins into its host cell. The majority of exported proteins contain a Host-Targeting motif (also known as a Plasmodium export element) that directs them for export.

Cell death induced by endoplasmic reticulum stress

The FEBS Journal, 2016
The endoplasmic reticulum is an organelle with multiple functions. The synthesis of transmembrane proteins and proteins that are to be secreted occurs in this organelle.

Forming disulfides in the endoplasmic reticulum

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research, 2013
Protein disulfide bonds are an important co- and post-translational modification for proteins entering the secretory pathway. They are covalent interactions between two cysteine residues which support structural stability and promote the assembly of multi-protein complexes.

METTL3 knockout accelerates hepatocarcinogenesis via inhibiting endoplasmic reticulum stress response

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Liver‐specific knockout of N6‐methyladenosine (m6A) methyltransferase METTL3 significantly accelerated hepatic tumor initiation under various oncogenic challenges, contrary to the previously reported oncogenic role of METTL3 in liver cancer cell lines or xenograft models. Mechanistically, METTL3 deficiency reduced m6A deposition on Manf transcripts and

FDG kinetics in cells and tissues: a biochemically-driven compartmental approach [PDF]

arXiv, 2018
The radioactive glucose analogue 2-deoxy-2-[18F]fluoro-D-glucose (FDG) is widely used to reconstruct glucose metabolism and other biological functions in cells and tissues. The analysis of data on the time course of FDG tracer distribution is performed by the use of appropriate compartmental models.

Soman induces endoplasmic reticulum stress and apoptosis of cerebral organoids via the GRP78‐ATF6‐CHOP signaling pathway

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Cerebral organoids were employed as a novel model to explore the neurotoxicity of soman. Soman inhibited acetylcholinesterase activity, increased cell apoptosis and upregulated endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress markers glucose‐regulated protein 78 (GRP78), activating transcription factor 6 (ATF6) and C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP).

A risk score model based on endoplasmic reticulum stress related genes for predicting prognostic value of osteosarcoma

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2023
Background We aimed to establish an osteosarcoma prognosis prediction model based on a signature of endoplasmic reticulum stress-related genes. Methods Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between osteosarcoma with and without metastasis from The Cancer

A phenomenological cluster-based model of Ca2+ waves and oscillations for Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (IP3R) channels [PDF]

, 2018
Clusters of IP3 receptor channels in the membranes of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of many non-excitable cells release calcium ions in a cooperative manner giving rise to dynamical patterns such as Ca2+ puffs, waves, and oscillations that occur on multiple spatial and temporal scales. We introduce a minimal yet descriptive reaction-diffusion model of
