Endoplasmic reticulum stress in gut inflammation: Implications for ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease.
Eukaryotic cells contain the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), a prevalent and intricate membranous structural system. During the development of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), the stress on the ER and the start of the unfolded protein response are very important. Some chemicals, including 4μ8C, small molecule agonists of X-box binding protein 1, and ISRIB, work on the inositol-requiring enzyme 1, turn on transcription factor 6, and activate protein kinase RNA-like ER kinase pathways. This may help ease the symptoms of IBD. Researchers investigating the gut microbiota have discovered a correlation between ER stress and it. This suggests that changing the gut microbiota could help make new medicines for IBD. This study looks at how ER stress works and how it contributes to the emergence of IBD. It also talks about its possible clinical importance as a therapeutic target and looks into new ways to treat this condition.
