Research Abstract |
In this study, we investigated the expression of EC-SOD in 3T3-L1 adipocytes during ER stress conditions to explore the drug for metabolic disorders. We confirmed the reduction of EC-SOD by ER stress, but not of other SOD isozymes. Moreover, we speculated that the expression of EC-SOD was regulated by eIF2α signaling cascades. Overall, we suggested that the regulation of EC-SOD during ER stress conditions might lead to improve metabolic disorders.
