The Unfolded Protein Response: An Overview [PDF]
The unfolded protein response is the mechanism by which cells control endoplasmic reticulum (ER) protein homeostasis. Under normal conditions, the UPR is not activated; however, under certain stresses, such as hypoxia or altered glycosylation, the UPR ...

Unfolded protein response in colorectal cancer [PDF]
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a gastrointestinal malignancy originating from either the colon or the rectum. A growing number of researches prove that the unfolded protein response (UPR) is closely related to the occurrence and progression of colorectal ...

Aging and age-related neurodegeneration are both associated with the accumulation of unfolded and abnormally folded proteins, highlighting the importance of protein homeostasis (termed proteostasis) in maintaining organismal health.

Unfolded protein response [PDF]
SummaryIn eukaryotic cells, the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a membrane-enclosed interconnected organelle responsible for the synthesis, folding, modification, and quality control of numerous secretory and membrane proteins. The processes of protein folding and maturation are highly assisted and scrutinized but are also sensitive to changes in ER ...

The unfolded protein response [PDF]
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a principal site for folding and maturation of transmembrane, secretory and ER-resident proteins. Perturbations that alter ER homeostasis can lead to accumulation of unfolded proteins (UPs), which is a threat to all living cells.

The unfolded protein response protects from tau neurotoxicity in vivo. [PDF]
The unfolded protein response is a critical system by which the cell handles excess misfolded protein in the secretory pathway. The role of the system in modulating the effects of aggregation prone cytosolic proteins has received less attention.

The unfolded protein response [PDF]
Where does the UPR function? Between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the nucleus of eukaryotic cells. All secreted proteins and proteins that reside in secretory compartments translocate as nascent peptide chains into the ER, where they may undergo folding, modification and assembly before assuming their functional conformations.

Unfolded protein response in the COVID-19 context
The unfolded protein response (UPR) maintains cellular homeostasis by regulating key elements of cellular growth and defense. Recent evidence suggests that this mechanism affects the vascular barrier function, by modulating lung endothelial permeability.
