1 The activation of caspase-3 induced by hyperoxia or tunicamycin was diminished and immunoglobulin heavy chain-binding protein/glucose-regulated protein 78-kDa (BiP/GRP78) induction was increased in ERp57 knockdown cells. Tunicamycin caspase 3 Homo sapiens
2 Overexpression of ERp57 also augmented tunicamycin-induced caspase-3 activation and reduced BiP/GRP78 induction. Tunicamycin caspase 3 Homo sapiens
3 It appears that knockdown of ERp57 confers cellular protection against hyperoxia- or tunicamycin-induced apoptosis by inhibition of caspase-3 activation and stimulation of BiP/GRP78 induction. Tunicamycin caspase 3 Homo sapiens
