The mutualistic fungus Piriformospora indica colonizes Arabidopsis roots by inducing an endoplasmic reticulum stress-triggered caspase-dependent cell death [PDF]
In Arabidopsis thaliana roots, the mutualistic fungus Piriformospora indica initially colonizes living cells, which die as the colonization proceeds. We aimed to clarify the molecular basis of this colonization-associated cell death.

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.

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

Green fluorescent protein-based monitoring of endoplasmic reticulum redox poise [PDF]
Pathological endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is tightly linked to the accumulation of reactive oxidants, which can be both upstream and downstream of ER stress.

EFP1 is an ER stress-induced glycoprotein which interacts with the pro-apoptotic protein Par-4
We have isolated the rat ortholog of EFP1 (EF-hand binding protein 1) as a novel interaction partner of the pro-apoptotic protein Par-4 (prostate apoptosis response-4).

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

EDEM depletion mitigates ER stress.
(A) Representative confocal images of WT(EV) control or indicated RNAi depleted young adults carrying the Phsp-4::GFP transgene under non ER-stress conditions (upper panel), treatment with 5 μg/ml tunicamycin for 12h (middle panel), and heat shock, and 5

Deep Learning-Based Morphological Classification of Endoplasmic Reticulum Under Stress
Endoplasmic reticulum stress (ER stress) is a condition that is defined by abnormal accumulation of unfolded proteins. It plays an important role in maintaining cellular protein, lipid, and ion homeostasis.

ER stress-mediated apoptosis in a new mouse model of osteogenesis imperfecta [PDF]
Osteogenesis imperfecta is an inherited disorder characterized by increased bone fragility, fractures, and osteoporosis, and most cases are caused by mutations affecting the type I collagen genes.

Lipid nanoparticles as a tool to dissect dendritic cell maturation pathways
Summary: Depending on how antigens are being decoded by dendritic cells (DCs), their acquisition will induce a homeostatic or immunogenic maturation program.
