Endoplasmic reticulum stress differentially modulates the IL-6 family of cytokines in murine astrocytes and macrophages

Abstract In many diseases, misfolded proteins accumulate within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), leading to ER stress. In response, the cell initiates the unfolded protein response (UPR) to reestablish homeostasis. Additionally, in response to ER stress, various cell types mount an inflammatory respo...
