Endoplasmic reticulum stress in liver diseases
Amir Ajoolabady, Neil Kaplowitz, Cynthia Lebeaupin, Guido Kroemer, Randal J. Kaufman, Harmeet Malhi, Jun Ren – 5 May 2022 – The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is an intracellular organelle that fosters the correct folding of linear polypeptides and proteins, a process tightly governed by the ER‐resident enzymes and chaperones. Failure to shape the proper 3‐dimensional architecture of proteins culminates in the accumulation of misfolded or unfolded proteins within the ER, disturbs ER homeostasis, and leads to canonically defined ER stress.
