The CHOP-mediated up-regulation of DR5. The ER stress stimulates the induction of PERK, which supports phosphorylation of eIF2α, and thereby results in stimulation of translation of ATF4. Then, ATF4- ATF3- CHOP signaling pathway is elicited and contributes to the up-regulating DR5 expression, facilitating tumor cells-sensitivity to TRAIL. TRAIL, Tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand, CHOP, C/EBP homologous protein; PERK, Protein kinase R-like ER kinase; eIF2α, Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2α; ATF3/4, Activating transcription factor 3/4; ER Stress, Endoplasmic reticulum stress; DISC, Activation of death-inducing signaling complex.
