Abstract
Cisplatin is a commonly used chemotherapy agent with a nearly universal side effect of sensorineural hearing loss. The cellular mechanisms underlying cisplatin ototoxicity are poorly understood. Efforts in drug development to prevent or reverse cisplatin ototoxicity have largely focused on pathways of oxidative stress and apoptosis. An effective treatment for cisplatin ototoxicity, sodium thiosulfate (STS), while beneficial when used in standard risk hepatoblastoma, is associated with reduced survival in disseminated pediatric malignancies, highlighting the need for more specific drugs without potential tumor protective effects. The unfolded protein response (UPR) and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress pathways have been shown to be involved in the pathogenesis of noise-induced hearing loss and cochlear synaptopathy in vivo, and these pathways have been implicated broadly in cisplatin cytotoxicity. This study sought to determine whether the UPR can be targeted to prevent cisplatin ototoxicity. Neonatal cochlear cultures and HEK cells were exposed to cisplatin and UPR-modulating drugs, and UPR marker gene expression and cell death measured. Treatment with ISRIB, a drug that activates eif2B and downregulates the pro-apoptotic PERK/CHOP pathway of the UPR, was tested in an in vivo mouse model of cisplatin ototoxicity and well as a head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) cell-based assay of cisplatin cytotoxicity. Cisplatin exhibited a biphasic, non-linear dose-response of cell death and apoptosis that correlated with different patterns of UPR marker gene expression in HEK cells and cochlear cultures. ISRIB treatment protected against cisplatin-induced hearing loss and hair-cell death, but did not impact the cytotoxic effects of cisplatin on HNSCC cell viability, unlike STS. These findings demonstrate that targeting the pro-apoptotic PERK/CHOP pathway with ISRIB can mitigate cisplatin ototoxicity without reducing anti-cancer cell effects, suggesting that this may be a viable strategy for drug development.

Abstract
The integrated stress response (ISR) triggered in response to various cellular stress enables mammalian cells to effectively cope with diverse stressful conditions while maintaining their normal functions. Four kinases (PERK, PKR, GCN2, and HRI) of ISR regulate ISR signaling and intracellular protein translation via mediating the phosphorylation of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 α (eIF2α) at Ser51. Early ISR creates an opportunity for cells to repair themselves and restore homeostasis. This effect, however, is reversed in the late stages of ISR. Currently, some studies have shown the non-negligible impact of ISR on diseases such as ischemic diseases, cognitive impairment, metabolic syndrome, cancer, vanishing white matter, etc. Hence, artificial regulation of ISR and its signaling with ISR modulators becomes a promising therapeutic strategy for relieving disease symptoms and improving clinical outcomes. Here, we provide an overview of the essential mechanisms of ISR and describe the ISR-related pathways in organelles including mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, and lysosomes. Meanwhile, the regulatory effects of ISR modulators and their potential application in various diseases are also enumerated.

Abstract
Cisplatin is a first-line chemotherapeutic agent in the treatment of malignant tumors with remarkable clinical effects and low cost. However, the ototoxicity and neurotoxicity of cisplatin greatly limit its clinical application. This article reviews the possible pathways and molecular mechanisms of cisplatin trafficking from peripheral blood into the inner ear, the toxic response of cisplatin to inner ear cells, as well as the cascade reactions leading to cell death. Moreover, this article highlights the latest research progress in cisplatin resistance mechanism and cisplatin ototoxicity. Two effective protective mechanisms, anti-apoptosis and mitophagy activation, and their interaction in the inner ear are discussed. Additionally, the current clinical preventive measures and novel therapeutic agents for cisplatin ototoxicity are described. Finally, this article also forecasts the prospect of possible drug targets for mitigating cisplatin-induced ototoxicity. These include the use of antioxidants, inhibitors of transporter proteins, inhibitors of cellular pathways, combination drug delivery methods, and other mechanisms that have shown promise in preclinical studies. Further research is needed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of these approaches.

Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a major organelle involved in protein quality control and cellular homeostasis. ER stress results from structural and functional dysfunction of the organelle, along with the accumulation of misfolded proteins and changes in calcium homeostasis, it leads to ER stress response pathway such as unfolded protein response (UPR). Neurons are particularly sensitive to the accumulation of misfolded proteins. Thus, the ER stress is involved in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, prion disease and motor neuron disease (MND). Recently, the complex involvement of ER stress pathways has been demonstrated in experimental models of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)/MND using pharmacological and genetic manipulation of the unfolded protein response (UPR), an adaptive response to ER stress. Here, we aim to provide recent evidence demonstrating that the ER stress pathway is an essential pathological mechanism of ALS. In addition, we also provide therapeutic strategies that can help treat diseases by targeting the ER stress pathway.
