      Abnormal modifications to mutant superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) are linked to familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (fALS). Misfolding of wild-type SOD1 (SOD1(WT)) is also observed in postmortem tissue of a subset of ...
    • Lebeaupin, Cynthia; Vallée, Deborah; Hazari, Younis; Hetz Flores, Claudio; Chevet, Eric; Bailly-Maitre, Béatrice (Elsevier B.V., 2018)
      © 2018 The global epidemic of obesity has been accompanied by a rising burden of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), with manifestations ranging from simple steatosis to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, potentially ...
    • Dufey, Estefanie; Urra, Hery; Hetz Flores, Claudio (Academic Press, 2015)
      © 2015 Elsevier Ltd. Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is generated by various physiological and pathological conditions that induce an accumulation of misfolded proteins in its lumen. ER stress activates the unfolded ...
    • Martínez, Gabriela; Khatiwada, Sanjeev; Costa-Mattioli, Mauro; Hetz Flores, Claudio (Elsevier Ltd, 2018)
      © 2018 Elsevier Ltd Neuronal proteostasis is maintained by the dynamic integration of different processes that regulate the synthesis, folding, quality control, and localization of proteins. The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) ...
    • Hetz Flores, Claudio; Saxena, Smita (Nature Publishing Group, 2017)
      The clinical manifestation of neurodegenerative diseases is initiated by the selective alteration in the functionality of distinct neuronal populations. The pathology of many neurodegenerative diseases includes accumulation ...

      © 2014 Elsevier B.V. Alzheimer's and Prion diseases are two neurodegenerative conditions sharing different pathophysiological characteristics. Disease symptoms are associated with the abnormal accumulation of protein ...
    • Hetz Flores, Claudio (2007)
      Programmed cell death is essential for the development and maintenance of cellular homeostasis, and its deregulation results in a variety of pathologic conditions. The BCL-2 family of proteins is a group of evolutionarily ...
    • Urra, Hery; Hetz Flores, Claudio (Nature, 2017)
      PERK is a major sensor of the unfolded protein response controlling cell fate under endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. A new study reveals an additional step for optimal PERK signaling, involving the binding of CNPY2 to ...
