Brain‐derived neurotrophic factor suppresses tunicamycin‐induced upregulation of CHOP in neurons
23 Apr 2007
Abstract excerpt
The accumulation of unfolded or misfolded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) lumen triggers ER stress. ER stress initiates a number of specific compensatory signaling pathways including unfolded protein response (UPR). UPR is characterized by translational attenuation, synthesis of ER chaperone proteins such as glucose-regulated protein of 78 kDa (GRP78, also known as Bip), and transcriptional induction,...
