- 10:07Conclusion
In the present study, the expression is knocked down of two downstream signaling components of the PERK pathway, the cytoprotective calcineurin and the pro-apoptotic CHOP, by using specific shRNAs. In opposite ways, these modulate the susceptibility of primary cortical neurons to neurite atrophy after induction of endoplasmic reticulum stress.
