Temporal scRNAseq identifies dynamic transcriptional programs that dictate the outcome of ER stress
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Perturbation of tissue homeostasis accompanies a diversity of inflammatory pathologies and imposes metabolic constraints at the cellular level that elicit ER stress, protein misfolding, and cell death. In response to ER stress, cells initiate the unfolded protein response (UPR), which determines divergent cell fate decisions, either promoting recovery of ER proteostasis and cell survival or triggering programmed cell death. However, the mechanisms by which the UPR transitions from the adaptive to terminal state are not fully understood. Here, we leverage single-cell genomics to define dynamic transcriptional states associated with the adaptive versus terminal UPR in the intestinal epithelium. We recovered the terminal-UPR signature, which dictates adaptation versus programmed cell death in response to ER stress.
