Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is triggered upon the interference with oxidative protein folding that aims to produce fully folded, disulfide-bonded and glycosylated proteins, which are then competent to exit the ER. Many of the enzymes catalyzing this process require the binding of Ca ions, including the chaperones BiP/GRP78, calnexin and calreticulin. The induction of ER stress with a variety of drugs interferes with chaperone Ca binding, increases cytosolic Cathrough the opening of ER Ca channels, and activates store-operated Ca entry (SOCE).

Background: SELENON-related myopathy (SELENON-RM) is a rare congenital myopathy characterized by slowly progressive axial muscle weakness, rigidity of the spine, scoliosis, and respiratory insufficiency. Laminin-a2-related muscular dystrophy (LAMA2-MD) has a similar clinical phenotype, which ranges from severe, early-onset congenital muscular dystrophy type 1A (MDC1A) to milder forms presenting as childhood- or adult-onset limb-girdle type muscular dystrophy. The first 1.

Congenital Muscular Dystrophies (CMD) are phenotypically and genotypically heterogenous disorders with a prevalence of 0.68 to 2.5/100,000, contributing to significant morbidity and mortality.

Selenoprotein N-related myopathy (SEPN1-RM) is a genetic disease that causes muscle weakness and respiratory failure. Germani et al. demonstrate that diaphragm weakness in SEPN1-RM is prevented by the inhibition of ER stress or ERO1 oxidoreductase regulated by transcription factor CHOP.
