| Research Abstract |
Using microarray analysis and RT-PCR, we found that two types of MANF mRNA up-regulation by treatment with thapsigargin, an ER stress inducer. Afer constructing various expression plasmids of mouse MANF mutants in addition to two full-length mouse MANF, we evaluated the effects of MANF-overexpression on stress-induced cell death and examined the processing and secretion of wild type and mutated MANF.
