Circulating Glucose-Regulated Protein 78 Levels in Patients with Chronic Hepatitis B Infection

Abstract: Objectives: The role of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in the pathogenesis of hepatitis B virus (HBV) has been reported. However, serum levels of glucose-regulated protein (GRP) 78 which is an ER stress marker both in tissue and circulation have not been reported yet. This study aimed to evaluate serum GRP78 levels in patients with chronic HBV infection. Materials and Methods: A total of 60 patients with HBV infection and 50 control subjects were included in this study. According to HBV-DNA levels, patients… Show more

“…In a recent study, it was revealed that GRP78 overexpression inhibited synoviocyte apoptosis in the synovial fluid samples of patients with rheumatoid arthritis, which is known as a chronic inflammatory process, and synovicyte proliferation and angiogenesis were found to increase in rats with osteoarthritis with repeated intra-articular BIX (32). In a study conducted on chronic viral hepatitis B patients, no statistically significant differences were found in GRP78 levels examined in peripheral blood samples of the patient and healthy groups (35). Moreover, Ardic et al have examined the prognostic value of ER stress markers in patients who were admitted to emergency service with cardiac arrest, and demonstrated that GRP78 concentrations did not have an impact on ROSC, 24-h, and 1-to 3-month survival periods.…”

“…GRP78, one of the ER stress markers previously studied in conditions such as heart failure [ 24 ], cardiac arrest [ 25 ], hepatitis infection [ 26 ], is known to play a key role, especially in coronavirus infections. Previous research has documented that, when ER stress occurs in viral infections, GRP78 is overexpressed and translocated from the ER to the cell membrane, and that it is also involved in the internalization of numerous viruses, such as Bat Coronavirus, MERS-CoV, Ebola Virus, Dengue Virus, Japanese Encephalitis Virus, Influenza Virus, and Zika Virus, to the host cell.…”

“…As GRP78 is upregulated during ER stress, it is considered as an indicator for ER stress both in tissue and blood. Circulatory GRP78 level was measured in a limited number of studies and no study was related to neurodegenerative/psychiatric disease (20)(21)(22). Nevertheless, obesity, which is a hepatic ER stress condition, was reported to induce a GRP78 elevation in plasma as well as in the liver (20).…”
