Correlations of endoplasmic reticulum stress and cancer drug resistance / 中国药理学通报

ABSTRACT

Endoplasmic reticulum is an important organelle in eu-karyotic cells.Endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS)is usually triggered under cell hypoxia,carbohydrate undersupply or medi-cal treatment.Now,present studies show that ERS could activate several cell signal pathways and the UPR pathway is most widely researched.When UPR activates cell signal pathway,it can reg-ulate cancer drug resistance by involving with DNA damage re-pair,apoptotic suppression and autophagy.
