ER stress as a sentinel mechanism for ER Ca homeostasis.

Cell Calcium

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.

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.

Article Synopsis
  • * ERO1A depletion in SEPN1 knockout cells enhances ER redox balance, improves mitochondrial function, and combats diaphragmatic weakness in mice, while ERO1A knockout shows beneficial effects on ER stress and MAM functionality.
  • * ERO1A overexpression is observed in muscle biopsies from SEPN1-RM patients, and the ER stress inhibitor tauroursodeoxycholic acid (TUDCA) improves bio
