A peptidic unconjugated GRP78/BiP ligand modulates the unfolded protein response and induces prostate cancer cell death.

The molecular chaperone GRP78/BiP is a key regulator of protein folding in the endoplasmic reticulum, and it plays a pivotal role in cancer cell survival and chemoresistance. Inhibition of its function has therefore been an important strategy for inhibiting tumor cell growth in cancer therapy. Previ...
