TLDR
It is established that ER stress is chronically activated in CP and is induced early in pancreatic injury through pathologic calcium signaling independent of trypsinogen activation.

Autophagy, Inflammation, and Immune Dysfunction in the Pathogenesis of Pancreatitis

TL;DR: The roles of autophagy and inflammation in pancreatitis, mechanisms of deregulation, and connections among disordered pathways are discussed, and gaps in knowledge are identified and perspective directions for research are delineated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Basal autophagy maintains pancreatic acinar cell homeostasis and protein synthesis and prevents ER stress.

TL;DR: Autophagy is identified as an essential homeostatic process that maintains pancreatic acinar cell function by preventing endoplasmic reticulum stress, reactive oxygen species accumulation, and DNA damage, and basal autophagy preserves the high rates of protein synthesis that characterize the exocrine pancreas.
Journal ArticleDOI

Early Intra-Acinar Events in Pathogenesis of Pancreatitis

TL;DR: Multiple parallel mechanisms, including activation of inflammatory cascades, endoplasmic reticulum stress, autophagy, and mitochondrial dysfunction in the acinar cells are now recognized to be important in driving the profound systemic inflammatory response and extensive pancreatic injury seen in acute pancreatitis.

FGF21 Is an Exocrine Pancreas Secretagogue

TL;DR: P pancreatic FGF21 is a digestive enzyme secretagogue whose physiologic function is to maintain acinar cell proteostasis through an autocrine/paracrine mechanism that requires signaling through a tyrosine kinase receptor complex composed of an FGF receptor and β-Klotho.

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

The Unfolded Protein Response: From Stress Pathway to Homeostatic Regulation

TL;DR: The vast majority of proteins that a cell secretes or displays on its surface first enter the endoplasmic reticulum, where they fold and assemble, and only properly assembled proteins advance from the ER to the cell surface.

XBP1 mRNA Is Induced by ATF6 and Spliced by IRE1 in Response to ER Stress to Produce a Highly Active Transcription Factor

TL;DR: The transcription factor XBP1, a target of ATF6, is identified as a mammalian substrate of such an unconventional mRNA splicing system and it is shown that only the spliced form of X BP1 can activate the UPR efficiently.
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.

Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress and the Inflammatory Basis of Metabolic Disease

TL;DR: The endoplasmic reticulum is the major site in the cell for protein folding and trafficking and is central to many cellular functions and is emerging as a potential site for the intersection of inflammation and metabolic disease.
