CHOP is a multifunctional transcription factor in the ER stress response

Nishitoh, H.·2012·Journal of Biochemistry

Abstract

The accumulation of unfolded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) induces ER stress. To restore ER homeostasis, cells possess a highly specific ER quality-control system called the unfold protein response (UPR). In the case of prolonged ER stress or UPR malfunction, apoptosis signalling is activated. This ER stress-induced apoptosis has been implicated in the pathogenesis of several conformational diseases. CCAAT-enhancer-binding protein homologous protein (CHOP) is induced by ER stress and mediates apoptosis. Recent studies by the Gotoh group have shown that the CHOP pathway is also involved in ER stress-induced cytokine production in macrophages. The multifunctional roles of CHOP in the ER stress response are discussed below.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
