    ER stress (PERK/eIF2α phosphorylation) mediates the polyglutamine-induced LC3 conversion, an essential step for autophagy formation

    Expanded polyglutamine 72 repeat (polyQ72) aggregates induce endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-mediated cell death with caspase-12 activation and vesicular formation (autophagy). We examined this relationship ...

    Caspase-12 processing and fragment translocation into nuclei of tunicamycin-treated cells

    Excess endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress induces processing of caspase-12, which is located in the ER, and cell death. However, little is known about the relationship between caspase-12 processing and cell dea...
