Differential Effects of PERK and IRE1α Silencing on Expression of Apoptosis and Autophagy Markers in T-Lymphoblastic Leukemia MOLT-3 Cells

The results indicate that the PERK pathway is an important contributor to the survival of MOLT-3 cells under basal ER stress, while PERK depletion compromises the resistance of cells to UPR-mediated apoptosis.

JNK and p53 cause human and mouse β cell death during excessive unfolded protein response

In human β cells, pharmacological inhibition of both JNK and p53 improved β cell survival during GRP78 knockdown–induced UPR, and possible therapeutic targets to preserve insulin secretory capacity in diabetes are outlined.

Oxidative Stress-Mediated Mitochondrial Dysfunction Drives Genistein-Induced Apoptosis in TM4 Sertoli and ELT3 Leiomyoma Cells

Genistein (GEN) exhibits concentration- and cell-type-dependent biological activities; however, the mechanisms underlying its cytotoxicity remain incompletely understood. This study investigated whether oxidative stress-mediated mitochondrial dysfunction contributes to GEN-induced apoptosis in TM4 mouse Sertoli cells a...
