A Class of Membrane Proteins Shaping the Tubular Endoplasmic Reticulum
How is the characteristic shape of a membrane bound organelle achieved? We have used an in vitro system to address the mechanism by which the tubular network of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is generated and maintained. Based on the inhibitory effect of sulfhydryl reagents and antibodies, network formation in vitro requires the integral membrane protein Rtn4a/NogoA, a member of the ubiquitous ...
متن کاملEndoplasmic reticulum stress induces autophagy in renal proximal tubular cells.
BACKGROUND Autophagy, an intracellular self-degradation system conserved throughout eukaryotes, plays an important role in a variety of biological processes, including cell death, development, cancer, defence against infection and neurodegeneration. However, little information about autophagy in renal tubular cells is available. We investigated the relationship of autophagy with endoplasmic ret...
متن کاملEndoplasmic Reticulum Redox State Is Not Perturbed by Pharmacological or Pathological Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress in Live Pancreatic β-Cells
Accumulation of unfolded, misfolded and aggregated proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) causes ER stress. ER stress can result from physiological situations such as acute increases in secretory protein biosynthesis or pathological conditions that perturb ER homeostasis such as alterations in the ER redox state. Here we monitored ER redox together with transcriptional output of the Unfolde...
متن کاملEndoplasmic reticulum stress signaling in disease.
The extracellular space is an environment hostile to unmodified polypeptides. For this reason, many eukaryotic proteins destined for exposure to this environment through secretion or display at the cell surface require maturation steps within a specialized organelle, the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). A complex homeostatic mechanism, known as the unfolded protein response (UPR), has evolved to lin...
متن کاملEndoplasmic reticulum stress in health and disease.
Unfolded proteins and other conditions affecting endoplasmic reticulum (ER) homeostasis cause ER stress. The cell reacts to ER stress by activation of the unfolded protein response (UPR), which induces profound changes in cellular metabolism including general translation attenuation, transcriptional upregulation of molecular chaperone genes, and activation of ER-associated degradation. However,...
