The C/EBP Homologous Protein (CHOP) Transcription Factor Functions in Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress-Induced Apoptosis and Microbial Infection

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
Apoptosis is a form of cell death by which the body maintains the homeostasis of the internal environment. Apoptosis is an initiative cell death process that is controlled by genes and is mainly divided into endogenous pathways (mitochondrial pathway ...

Cytosolic entry of Shiga-like toxin A chain from the yeast endoplasmic reticulum requires catalytically active Hrd1p [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background Escherichia coli Shiga-like toxin 1 normally traffics to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) in sensitive mammalian cells from where the catalytic A chain (SLTxA1) dislocates to the cytosol to inactivate ribosomes.

Folding-competent and folding-defective forms of Ricin A chain have different fates following retrotranslocation from the endoplasmic reticulum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We report that a toxic polypeptide retaining the potential to refold upon dislocation from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to the cytosol (ricin A chain; RTA) and a misfolded version that cannot (termed RTAΔ), follow ER-associated degradation (ERAD ...

Transport of cholesterol from the endoplasmic reticulum to the plasma membrane is constitutive in CaCo-2 cells and differs from the transport of plasma membrane cholesterol to the endoplasmic reticulum

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1998
The transport of newly synthesized cholesterol from its site of synthesis, the endoplasmic reticulum, to the plasma membrane was studied in CaCo-2 cells. The appearance of newly synthesized cholesterol on the cell surface was rapid. By 30 min, 50% of the

Endoplasmic reticulum H₂O₂ : Ero1-driven generation and GPx-mediated detoxification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) oxidoreductin 1 alpha (Ero1alpha) is an ER-resident oxidase, which utilizes molecular oxygen (O2) as terminal electron acceptor to produce disulfide bonds and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2).

Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress and the Inflammatory Basis of Metabolic Disease

open access: yesCell, 2010
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the major site in the cell for protein folding and trafficking and is central to many cellular functions. Failure of the ER's adaptive capacity results in activation of the unfolded protein response (UPR), which ...

Targeting photodynamic and photothermal therapy to the endoplasmic reticulum enhances immunogenic cancer cell death

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Immunogenic cell death (ICD)-associated immunogenicity can be evoked through reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced via endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress.

ER-Phagy: Quality Control and Turnover of Endoplasmic Reticulum.

open access: yesTrends in Cell Biology, 2020
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the largest organelle in cells and has fundamental functions, such as folding, processing, and trafficking of proteins, cellular metabolism, and ion storage.

The physiological functions of mammalian endoplasmic oxidoreductin 1: on disulfides and more [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Significance: The oxidative process of disulfide-bond formation is essential for the folding of most secretory and membrane proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER).

Calcium bridges built by mitochondria-associated endoplasmic reticulum membranes: potential targets for neural repair in neurological diseases

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research
The exchange of information and materials between organelles plays a crucial role in regulating cellular physiological functions and metabolic levels. Mitochondria-associated endoplasmic reticulum membranes serve as physical contact channels between the ...
