Abstract

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a cellular organelle responsible for folding of secretory and membrane proteins. Perturbance in ER homeostasis caused by various intrinsic/extrinsic stimuli challenges the protein-folding capacity of the ER, leading to an ER dysfunction, called ER stress. Cells have developed a defensive response to adapt and/or survive in the face of ER stress that may be detrimental to cell function and survival. When exposed to ER stress, the cell activates a complex and elaborate signaling network that includes translational modulation and transcriptional induction of genes. In addition to these autonomous responses, recent studies suggest that the stressed tissue secretes peptides or unknown factors that transfer the signal to other cells in the same or different organs, leading the organism as a whole to cope with challenges in a non-autonomous manner. In this review, we discuss the mechanisms by which cells adapt to ER stress challenges autonomously and transfer the stress signal to non-stressed cells in different organs.
