Endoplasmic reticulum stress Current hypotheses suggest that endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) is interconnected with ROS production, as ERS can directly or indirectly induce ROS generation, while ROS accumulation, in turn, disrupts protein folding and calcium homeostasis in the endoplasmic reticulum, forming a vicious cycle that may lead to cellular injury or death [145]

A lack of protein in the diet reduces the expression of autophagy receptor SQSTM1, increases the expression of autophagosome marker (MAP1LC3-II) as well as ER stress marker (the spliced isoform of XBP1), which helps accumulate TG in the liver (Yokota et al., 2016)
