Abstract
The integrated stress response (ISR) is a conserved mechanism by which eukaryotic cells remodel gene expression to adapt to intrinsic and extrinsic stressors rapidly and reversibly. The ISR is initiated when stress-activated protein kinases phosphorylate the major translation initiation factor eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2ɑ (eIF2ɑ), which globally suppresses translation initiation activity and permits the selective translation of stress-induced genes including important transcription factors such as activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4). Translationally repressed messenger RNAs (mRNAs) and noncoding RNAs assemble into cytoplasmic RNA-protein granules and polyadenylated RNAs are concomitantly stabilized. Thus, regulated changes in mRNA translation, stability, and localization to RNA-protein granules contribute to the reprogramming of gene expression that defines the ISR. We discuss fundamental mechanisms of RNA regulation during the ISR and provide an overview of a growing class of genetic disorders associated with mutant alleles of key translation factors in the ISR pathway. This article is categorized under: RNA Interactions with Proteins and Other Molecules > Protein-RNA Interactions: Functional Implications RNA in Disease and Development > RNA in Disease Translation > Translation Regulation RNA in Disease and Development > RNA in Development.

Abstract
Wolcott-Rallison syndrome (WRS), the most common cause of permanent neonatal diabetes mellitus (DM) in consanguineous families, has a poor prognosis, with a mean survival of 5.8 years. Majority of children with WRS succumb to the disease in the first decade of life. We present the long-term follow-up of an 8-year-2-month-old girl with genetically proven WRS who was born to a non-consanguineous parentage. She is on basal bolus regimen of insulin therapy for DM. In addition, she was noted to have features of skeletal dysplasia at 3 years and 3 months of age, which has led to her short stature. Surprisingly, she has had no episodes of hepatitis or liver dysfunction so far, which is frequently seen in children with WRS. To the best of our knowledge, she is the oldest surviving patient with WRS reported in India and South Asia.

PERK controls bone homeostasis through the regulation of osteoclast differentiation and function. Cell Death Dis 2020; 11:847. [PMID: 33051453 PMCID: PMC7554039 DOI: 10.1038/s41419-020-03046-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 46] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2020] [Revised: 09/20/2020] [Accepted: 09/22/2020] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
Osteoclasts are multinucleated giant cells with the ability to degrade bone tissue, and are closely related to abnormal bone metabolic diseases. Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is an organelle responsible for protein modification, quality control, and transportation. The accumulation of unfolded or misfolded proteins in ER cavity induces ER stress. Double-stranded RNA-dependent protein kinase-like ER kinase (PERK) is an ER stress-sensing protein, which is ubiquitous in eukaryotic cells. Systemic PERK knockout mice show severe bone loss, suggesting that PERK is of great significance for maintaining the normal growth and development of bone tissue, but the role of PERK in osteoclastogenesis is still unclear. In this study, we found that PERK was significantly activated during RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation; knockdown of PERK by siRNA and inhibition of PERK by GSK2606414, respectively, had significant negative regulatory effects on the formation and bone resorption of osteoclasts. PERK inhibitor GSK2606414 down-regulated the mRNA levels and protein expression of osteoclast differentiation marker genes, and inhibited RANKL-induced activation of Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) pathways. Treatment with PERK inhibitor GSK2606414 in ovariectomized mouse model significantly suppressed bone loss and osteoclast formation. Thapsigargin activated ER stress to enhance autophagy, while GSK2606414 had a significant inhibitory effect on autophagy flux and autophagosome formation. Antioxidant N-acetylcysteine (NAC) could inhibit the expression of PERK phosphorylation, osteoclast-related proteins and autophagy-related proteins, but the use of PERK activator CCT020312 can reverse inhibition effect of NAC. Our findings demonstrate a key role for PERK in osteoclast differentiation and suggest its therapeutic potential.

Abstract
Secretory and membrane proteins are folded in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) prior to their exit. When ER function is disturbed by exogenous and endogenous factors, such as heat shock, ultraviolet radiation, hypoxia, or hypoglycemia, the misfolded proteins may accumulate, promoting ER stress. To rescue this unfavorable situation, the unfolded protein response is activated to reduce misfolded proteins within the ER. Upon ER stress, the ER transmembrane sensor molecules inositol-requiring enzyme 1 (IRE1), RNA-dependent protein kinase (PKR)-like ER kinase (PERK), and activating transcription factor 6, are activated. Here, we discuss the mechanisms of PERK and IRE1 activation and describe two working models for ER stress initiation: the BiP-dependent model and the ligand-driven model. ER stress activation has been linked to multiple diseases, including cancers, Alzheimer's disease, and diabetes. Thus, the regulation of ER stress may provide potential therapeutic targets for these diseases.

Abstract
Wolcott-Rallison syndrome (WRS) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by early-onset diabetes mellitus, skeletal dysplasia and growth retardation. Other associated disorders include severe liver and renal dysfunction, and central hypothyroidism. Mutations in the eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2α kinase 3 (EIF2AK3), which is located at chromosome 2p12, are responsible for this disorder. In the present case report, the case of a 3-month old boy diagnosed as neonatal diabetes, who had acute liver failure soon afterwards is detailed. This diagnosis was confirmed through the identification of a novel nonsense mutation in exon 1 of EIF2AK3. The aim of the current case report was to raise awareness for patients with WRS with neonatal diabetes mellitus, particularly those with multiple systemic manifestations.
