Activation of the Integrated Stress Response and Metabolic Dysfunction in a Murine Model of Sleep Apnea
8 Jun 2017
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Intermittent hypoxia (IH) induces activation of the integrated stress response (ISR), but its role in IH-induced visceral white adipose tissue (vWAT) insulin resistance is unknown. CHOP is activated by chronic ISR, whereas GADD34 dephosphorylates the subunit of translation initiation factor 2 (eIF2α), leading to termination of the ISR. We hypothesized that CHOP/Gadd34 null mice would not manifest...
