Salubrinal is a selective inhibitor of cellular complexes that dephosphorylate eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 subunit α (eIF2α). Salubrinal inhibited ER stress-mediated apoptosis induced by the protein glycosylation inhibitor tunicamycin (Tm) in a dose-dependent manner, with a median effective concentration (EC50) ∼ 15 μM. Salubrinal also suppressed Tm-induced DNA fragmentation the processing of caspase-7, a caspase activated by ER stress. | |
