19041636 Keith RJ, Haberzettl P, Vladykovskaya E, Hill BG, Kaiserova K, Srivastava S, Barski O, Bhatnagar A: Aldose reductase decreases endoplasmic reticulum stress in ischemic hearts. Chem Biol Interact. 2009 Mar 16;178(1-3):242-9. Epub 2008 Nov 11.

In cell culture experiments, exposure to model lipid peroxidation aldehydes-4-hydroxy-trans-2-nonenal (HNE), 1-palmitoyl-2-oxovaleroyl phosphatidylcholine (POVPC) or acrolein led to an increase in the phosphorylation of ER stress markers PERK and eIF2-alpha and an increase in ATF3.

Treatment of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) with 2 to 10 microM acrolein led to an increase in the phosphorylation of eIF-2alpha within 10 to 30 min of exposure.
