Regulation of podocyte survival and endoplasmic reticulum stress by fatty acids and its modification by Stearoyl-CoA desaturases and cyclic AMP [PDF]
Podocyte apoptosis is a hallmark in the development and progression of diabetic nephropathy (DN). Several factors of the diabetic milieu are known to induce podocyte apoptosis. Currently, the role of free fatty acids (FFAs) for podocytopathy and podocyte

Obesity Induces Hypothalamic Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress and Impairs Proopiomelanocortin (POMC) Post-translational Processing [PDF]
It was shown previously that abnormal prohormone processing or inactive proconverting enzymes that are responsible for this processing cause profound obesity.

Endoplasmic reticulum stress as target for treatment of hearing loss
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) plays pivotal roles in coordinating protein biosynthesis and processing. Under ER stress, when excessive misfolded or unfolded proteins are accumulated in the ER, the unfolded protein response (UPR) is activated.

The genetic architecture of the genome-wide transcriptional response to ER stress in the mouse.
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress occurs when misfolded proteins accumulate in the ER. The cellular response to ER stress involves complex transcriptional and translational changes, important to the survival of the cell.

ER stress and neurodegenerative diseases [PDF]
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is caused by disturbances in the structure and function of the ER with the accumulation of misfolded proteins and alterations in the calcium homeostasis. The ER response is characterized by changes in specific proteins, causing translational attenuation, induction of ER chaperones and degradation of misfolded proteins.

Endoplasmic reticulum stress and the protein degradation system in ophthalmic diseases [PDF]
Objective Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is involved in the pathogenesis of various ophthalmic diseases, and ER stress-mediated degradation systems play an important role in maintaining ER homeostasis during ER stress. The purpose of this review is to

Ltc1 is an ER-localized sterol transporter and a component of ER-mitochondria and ER-vacuole contacts. [PDF]
Organelle contact sites perform fundamental functions in cells, including lipid and ion homeostasis, membrane dynamics, and signaling. Using a forward proteomics approach in yeast, we identified new ER-mitochondria and ER-vacuole contacts specified by an
