Coordinated stimulation of axon regenerative and neurodegenerative transcriptional programs by ATF4 following optic nerve injury [PDF]

open access: yeseLife
Stress signaling is important for determining the fates of neurons following axonal insults. Previously, we showed that the stress-responsive kinase PERK contributes to injury-induced neurodegeneration (Larhammar et al., 2017).

Loss of TRIM29 mitigates viral myocarditis by attenuating PERK-driven ER stress response in male mice

open access: yesNature Communications
Viral myocarditis, an inflammatory disease of the myocardium, is a significant cause of sudden death in children and young adults. The current coronavirus disease 19 pandemic emphasizes the need to understand the pathogenesis mechanisms and potential ...

Partial Deletion of Perk Improved High-Fat Diet-Induced Glucose Intolerance in Mice [PDF]

open access: yesEndocrinology and Metabolism, 2023
Although pancreatic endoplasmic reticulum kinase (PERK) is indispensable to beta cells, low-dose PERK inhibitor improved glucose- stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) and hyperglycemia in diabetic mice.

New Drosophila models to uncover the intrinsic and extrinsic factors that mediate the toxicity of the human prion protein

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2022
Misfolding of the prion protein (PrP) is responsible for devastating neurological disorders in humans and other mammals. An unresolved problem in the field is unraveling the mechanisms governing PrP conformational dynamics, misfolding, and the cellular ...

Classical swine fever virus employs the PERK- and IRE1-dependent autophagy for viral replication in cultured cells.

open access: yesVirulence, 2021
Endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS)-mediated autophagy is indispensable for modulation of replication and pathogenesis of numerous mammalian viruses. We have previously shown that classical swine fever virus (CSFV) infection induces ERS-mediated autophagy

Dietary Choline Mitigates High-Fat Diet-Impaired Chylomicrons Assembly via UPRer Modulated by perk DNA Methylation

open access: yesCells, 2022
High-fat diets (HFD) lead to impairment of chylomicrons (CMs) assembly and adversely influence intestinal lipid homeostasis. However, the mechanisms of HFD impairing CMs assembly have yet to be fully understood. Additionally, although choline, as a lipid-

PERK-Mediated Unfolded Protein Response Signaling Restricts Replication of the Tick-Borne Flavivirus Langat Virus

open access: yesViruses, 2020
The unfolded protein response (UPR) maintains protein-folding homeostasis in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and has been implicated as both beneficial and detrimental to flavivirus infection. Protein kinase R (PKR)-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase (PERK)
