Abstract
⺠We monitored the UPR in liver and myocardium, tissues that differ in O2 requirement. ⺠Mice exposure to 6.5% O2 resulted in ATF4, CHOP and GADD34 activation in liver. ⺠In the myocardium the ATF4-CHOP-GADD34 markers were not detectably activated. ⺠The apoptotic pathway mediated by CHOP and p-JNK was activated in hepatocytes only. ⺠Hepatocytes and myocites fine tune the UPR signaling pathway in in vivo hypoxia.
