| Bioactivity | BiP inducer X, a selective inducer of immunoglobulin heavy chain binding protein (BiP)/GRP78, is an effective ER (endoplasmic reticulum) stress inhibitor. BiP inducer X preferentially induces BiP with slight inductions of GRP94, calreticulin, and C/EBP homologous protein. BiP inducer X protects neurons from ER stress[1][2]. | ||||||||||||
| Invitro | BiP inducer X (5 μM; 0-12 hours; SK-N-SH cells) increase BiP protein[1].The induction of BiP by BiP inducer X (BIX) is mediated by activation of ER stress response elements (ERSEs) through the ATF6 pathway[1].BiP inducer X (5 μM; 12 hours; pretreatment with SK-N-SH cells) inhibits cell death induced by ER stress involving inhibited activation of caspases 3/7 and 4[1]. | ||||||||||||
