Description : |
IRE1 (Inositol-requiring enzyme 1) is a transmembrane protein kinase that is involved in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress response pathway. It is a key regulator of the unfolded protein response (UPR), which is activated in response to ER stress to maintain ER homeostasis and promote cell survival. Research has suggested that IRE1 plays a role in several diseases, including cancer, diabetes, and neurodegenerative diseases. In cancer, activation of IRE1 has been shown to promote cell survival and tumor growth, and inhibition of IRE1 has been suggested as a potential cancer therapy. In diabetes, activation of IRE1 has been implicated in the development of insulin resistance and beta cell dysfunction. Additionally, IRE1 has been implicated in the regulation of neuronal survival and degeneration, making it a potential target for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases. |
