homeostasis/metabolism
• injection of tunicamycin, an inducer of cell death through ER stress pathways, results in increased necrosis in the cortical areas of the kidneys and apoptosis in hippocampal neurons compared to wild-type mice
• MEFs and primary cultures of hepatocytes and cortical neurons from homozygous mutants also show increased sensitivity to tunicamycin and thapsigargin in vitro
|
• infarct volumes are increased following transient middle cerebral artery occlusion in mutants compared to wild-type mice
