Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-PERK antibody (AB79483)
IHC-P image of PERK staining on human cortical sections using ab79483 (1 : 500). The tissue was fixed in formaldehyde and the sections were then subjected to heat mediated antigen retrieval using citric acid and permeabilized using Triton-X. The sections were them blocked using 2% BSA for 1 hour at 20°C. ab79483 was diluted 1 : 500 and incubated with the sections for 18 hours at 20°C. The secondary antibody used was HRP conjugated Goat polyclonal to Rabbit IgG (1 : 500)

125I induces upregulation of PERK-eIF2a-ATF4-CHOP pathway to promote apoptosis.a To explore the possible apoptosis-related pathways induced by 125I, iTRAQ was performed in HepG2 cells. The results of the signal pathway enrichment analysis of differentially expressed proteins reveals that the eIF2 signaling pathway is significantly different between the control HepG2 cells and 125I-treated HepG2 cells. b, c After HepG2 cells were treated with different doses of 125I, the proteins and mRNA levels of the PERK-eIF2-ATF4-CHOP pathway were upregulated in a dose-dependent manner, as detected by WB (b) and qPCR (c). d The mRNA levels consistently increased in animal models in a dose-dependent manner, after 125I irradiation. Total RNA was isolated from mouse tumors and the pathway-related genes were seen to be upregulated at the mRNA level, as detected by qPCR. e, f The 125I-induced apoptosis and anti-proliferation effect were compromised by PERK-RNAi. After HepG2 cells transfected with Control-RNAi or PERK-RNAi were treated by 125I, the apoptosis and anti-proliferation effect were detected by cell proliferation assay and Annexin V–FITC/PI assay. The PERK-RNAi abrogated 125I-induced apoptosis and anti-proliferation effect. All the experiments were performed in triplicate and the data are presented as the mean ± SD. The t-test was used for data analysis. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01

Biological function summary
PERK plays an important role in maintaining cellular homeostasis during stress conditions. It forms part of a larger complex that regulates the adaptive response to ER stress. Upon activation PERK arrests general protein translation while allowing for selective translation of stress response proteins. This mechanism prevents the accumulation of unfolded proteins and assists in the survival of cells under adverse conditions. PERK also contributes to the regulation of oxidative stress and cell apoptosis adding further layers to its biological significance.
Pathways
PERK's activity intersects with the integrated stress response and UPR pathways. It shares a close functional relationship with proteins like ATF4 which is synthesized upon PERK activation and is important for the transcription of genes related to stress adaptation. The UPR pathway coordinates with the IRE1 and ATF6 pathways forming an important network for managing ER stress. These pathways collectively ensure cellular resilience adjusting metabolic demands and promoting cellular recovery.
