Abstract:
Objective To investigate the role of endoplasmic reticulum stress ( ERS) in asbestos-induced Alveolar epithelial cell apoptosis.Methods A549 cells were treated with asbestos to observe the expression of ERS proteins and apop-tosis gene by immunofluorescence staining and western blotting.Results Under asbestos exposure, the expression of Bip, GRP94, IRE-1α, BAX and BAK are up-regulated.There is a positive correlativity of the expression of proteins to the ex-posure time of asbestos.Conclusion Endoplasmic reticulum stress takes part in asbestos-induced apoptosis.
