STING-mediated disruption of calcium homeostasis chronically activates ER stress and primes T cell death [PDF]
STING gain-of-function mutations cause lung disease and T cell cytopenia through unknown mechanisms. Here, we found that these mutants induce chronic activation of ER stress and unfolded protein response (UPR), leading to T cell death by apoptosis in ...

Listerin Alleviates Alzheimer's Disease through IRE1‐mediated Decay of TLR4 mRNA
Alzheimer's disease (AD) progression is influenced by microglia‐mediated neuroinflammation. Here, it is demonstrated that Listerin suppresses neuroinflammatory signaling and cognitive impairment in AD models by triggering IRE1α‐mediated TLR4 mRNA decay. Adenoviral Listerin delivery reduces amyloid‐β pathology, positioning it as a new therapeutic target.

Pore-forming toxins (PFTs) constitute the single largest class of proteinaceous bacterial virulence factors and are made by many of the most important bacterial pathogens. Host responses to these toxins are complex and poorly understood. We find that the

Mifepristone increases mRNA translation rate, triggers the unfolded protein response, increases autophagic flux, and kills ovarian cancer cells in combination with proteasome or lysosome inhibitors [PDF]
The synthetic steroid mifepristone blocks the growth of ovarian cancer cells, yet the mechanism driving such effect is not entirely understood. Unbiased genomic and proteomic screenings using ovarian cancer cell lines of different genetic backgrounds and

IRE1β negatively regulates IRE1α signaling in response to endoplasmic reticulum stress [PDF]
IRE1β is an ER stress sensor uniquely expressed in epithelial cells lining mucosal surfaces. Here, we show that intestinal epithelial cells expressing IRE1β have an attenuated unfolded protein response to ER stress.

Ability of Hyperoxia to Activate the Unfolded Protein Response (UPR) in the Newborn Lung
Hyperoxia generates reactive species which have the potential to interfere with protein folding in pulmonary secretory cells. Given that hyperoxia is known to suppress protein synthesis and increase eIF2α phosphorylation (p‐eIF2α) in cultured lungs cells, we hypothesized that hyperoxia would activate the UPR in the lung.

USP13 deficiency in intestinal epithelial cells aggravates DSS‐induced colitis by enhancing ER stress and apoptosis. USP13 interacts with GRP78 and reduces its K63‐linked ubiquitination to alleviate epithelial injury. Restoring USP13 expression or targeting the USP13‐GRP78 axis may represent a promising strategy for treating inflammatory bowel disease ...

Nanomedicine‐Driven Modulation of Reductive Stress for Cancer Therapy
This article introduces a novel therapeutic paradigm that deliberately induces reductive stress within tumor cells to exploit their unique biochemical vulnerabilities. It systematically reviews the underlying biological mechanisms, current detection and monitoring techniques, and emerging advanced nanotechnology platforms specifically designed to ...

Activation of the unfolded protein response (UPR) has been suggested to attenuate renal ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. We recently found a compound, namely BIX, that activated the UPR selectively through the activating transcription factor 6 pathway.
