A hallmark of type 2 diabetes is the progressive loss of beta cell mass: cells in the pancreas that produce and release ...
When newly synthesized proteins translocate into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) lumen, they undergo 'quality control'. An elaborate system of chaperones helps proteins to fold and prevents misfolded ...

The endoplasmic reticulum is the protein-making factory within cells consisting of tightly stacked sheets of membrane studded with the molecules that make proteins. Now, researchers have refined a new ...
Misfolded proteins cause intracellular stress, which induces the unfolded-protein response (UPR). The UPR is a three-pronged signalling pathway that induces genes which cause cells to acquire a ...
A team of scientists has answered a long-standing question in cell biology, uncovering how the cell’s main energy currency, ATP, is transported into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Disrupted energy ...
Improvements in public health have allowed humankind to survive to older ages than ever before, but, for many people, these added golden years are not spent in good health. Aging is a natural part of ...
