Journal ArticleDOI

ER-stress-induced transcriptional regulation increases protein synthesis leading to cell death

TL;DR: It is shown that eIF2α-phosphorylation-attenuated protein synthesis, and not Atf4 mRNA translation, promotes cell survival, and suggesting that limiting protein synthesis will be therapeutic for diseases caused by protein misfolding in the ER.
Journal ArticleDOI

The impact of the unfolded protein response on human disease

TL;DR: The unfolded protein response is an essential adaptive intracellular signaling pathway that responds to metabolic, oxidative stress, and inflammatory response pathways and is implicated in a variety of diseases including metabolic disease, neurodegenerative disease, inflammatory disease, and cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

IRE1α-XBP1s Induces PDI Expression to Increase MTP Activity for Hepatic VLDL Assembly and Lipid Homeostasis

TL;DR: A key role is identified for the inositol-requiring transmembrane kinase/endoribonuclease 1α-X box binding protein 1 (XBP1) arm of the UPR in regulation of hepatic very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) assembly and secretion and may provide a therapeutic target for disorders of lipid metabolism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Unfolded protein response-induced ERdj3 secretion links ER stress to extracellular proteostasis

TL;DR: ERdj3 is, to the authors' knowledge, the first metazoan chaperone whose secretion into the extracellular space is regulated by the UPR, revealing a new mechanism by which UPR activation regulatesextracellular proteostasis.
