Negative regulation of ERK1/2 by PI3K is required for the protective effects of Pyropia yezoensis peptide against perfluorooctane sulfonate-induced endoplasmic reticulum stress

Abstract: Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) is a stable fluorosurfactant, which causes adverse effects in various organisms. The present study was designed to investigate the effects of Pyropia yezoensis peptide (PYP), a peptide comprised of 11 residues (ALEGGKSSGGG), on PFOS-induced endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in Chang cells. PFOS exposure (400 µM) for 24 h significantly decreased cell viability, which was upregulated by 250–1,000 pg/ml PYP treatment. Exposure to PFOS also significantly increased expression of the… Show more

“…The MAPK pathway is involved in endoplasmic reticulum stress, cell proliferation, cell cycle arrest, and autophagy [ 32 ]. In addition, PFOS can induce ERK activation and ER stress [ 33 ]. ERK1/2 activation can increase Beclin 1 expression and, subsequently, induce autophagy [ 34 ].…”

“…Due to the sensitivity to hypoxia, glucose, and ion disturbance, ER stress is mostly studied in cancer cells [ 14 ]. Reports have documented that ER stress is correlated with cancer cell activation, and an ER chaperone protein, GRP78, is enhanced in cancer cell proliferation and apoptosis through MAPKs, PI3K/Akt, and NF- κ B signalling pathways [ 26 , 27 ]. GRP78 has been postulated as a potential target for cancer cure and a potential prognostic marker [ 14 , 28 ].…”

“…Many studies have explored the functional effects of peptides from P. yezoensis , which has exhibited enhanced cell viability by reducing ER stress induced via environmental pollutants [ 28 ]. It also had the ability to decrease oxidative stress caused by hydrogen peroxide and acetaminophen in Chang cells [ 21 , 23 , 24 ].…”
