ABSTRACT
When large amounts of misfolded or unfolded proteins accumulate in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) in response to stress, a process called unfolded protein response (UPR) is activated. The disruption of this process leads to many diseases including diabetes, neurodegenerative diseases, and many cancers. In the process of UPR in response to stress and unfolded proteins, specific signaling pathways are induced in the endoplasmic reticulum and subsequently transmitted to the nucleus and cytoplasm, causing homeostasis and restoring the cell's normal condition with reducing protein translation and synthesis. The UPR response followed by stress enhancement balances cell survival with death, therefore in this condition cells decide either to survive or have the path of apoptosis ahead. However, in some cases, this balance is disturbed and the UPR pathway is chronically activated or not activated and the cell conditions lead to cancer. This study aimed to briefly investigate the association between ER stress, UPR, apoptosis, and autophagy in colorectal cancer (CRC). Moreover, in current study, we will try to demonstrate canonical ways and methods for the treatment of CRC cells with attenuated ER stress.
