Signal integration in the endoplasmic reticulum unfolded protein response

TL;DR: Together, at least three mechanistically distinct arms of the UPR regulate the expression of numerous genes that function within the secretory pathway but also affect broad aspects of cell fate and the metabolism of proteins, amino acids and lipids.
Journal ArticleDOI

Autophagy and the Integrated Stress Response

TL;DR: Autophagy is a cell biological process that is a central component of the integrated stress response and can be integrated with other cellular stress responses through parallel stimulation of autophagy and other stress responses by specific stress stimuli.
Journal ArticleDOI

The mammalian unfolded protein response

TL;DR: In the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), secretory and transmembrane proteins fold into their native conformation and undergo posttranslational modifications important for their activity and structure as mentioned in this paper.

Roles of CHOP/GADD153 in endoplasmic reticulum stress.

TL;DR: The current understanding of the roles of C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP) and GADD153 in ER stress-mediated apoptosis and in diseases including diabetes, brain ischemia and neurodegenerative disease are summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI

IDO expression by dendritic cells: tolerance and tryptophan catabolism.

TL;DR: This review summarizes key recent developments and proposes a unifying model for the role of IDO in tolerance induction, including studies of mammalian pregnancy, tumour resistance, chronic infections and autoimmune diseases.

Expression monitoring by hybridization to high density oligonucleotide arrays

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a method for monitoring the expression levels of a multiplicity of genes by hybridizing a nucleic acid sample to a high density array of oligonucleotide probes and quantifying the hybridized nucleic acids in the array.
Journal ArticleDOI

Determination of glutathione and glutathione disulfide using glutathione reductase and 2-vinylpyridine

TL;DR: It is reported here that 2-vinylpyridine is a much better reagent for the derivitization of glutathione, and it is demonstrated that the total glutATHione concentration in mouse plasma is substantially higher than generally reported and that glutathion disulfide constitutes less than 30% of the totalglutathione present.

Regulated Translation Initiation Controls Stress-Induced Gene Expression in Mammalian Cells

TL;DR: Protein kinases that phosphorylate the alpha subunit of eukaryotic initiation factor 2 (eIF2alpha) are activated in stressed cells and negatively regulate protein synthesis, resulting in the induction of the downstream gene CHOP (GADD153).
Journal ArticleDOI

IRE1 couples endoplasmic reticulum load to secretory capacity by processing the XBP-1 mRNA

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that mutations in either ire-1 or the transcription-factor-encoding xbp-1 gene abolished the UPR in Caenorhabditis elegans, suggesting that physiological ER load regulates a developmental decision in higher eukaryotes.

Determination of glutathione and glutathione disulfide in biological samples.

TL;DR: 5,5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic acid) (DTNB)-GSSG reductase recycling assay for total glutathione is a specific, sensitive, rapid, and reliable procedure, however, because the method depends on an accurate standard curve, appropriate standards containing the protein precipitating agent are essential.
