“…Recent data suggests that O-GlcNAc is one component of the cellular stress response that is relevant to a variety of models of injury in several cell and tissue types. OGlcNAc levels become elevated in response to numerous forms of cell stress and tissue injury including: heat stress (Sohn et al 2004;Zachara et al 2004b), oxidative stress Zachara et al 2004b), ethanolic stress (Zachara et al 2004b;Ngoh et al 2009b), genotoxic stress (doxorubicin, belocin, and UVB irradiation; Zachara et al 2004bZachara et al , 2011aLove et al 2010), reductive stress (iodoacetamide; Zachara et al 2004b), ER stress (dithiothreitol and tunicamycin; Zachara et al 2004b;Ngoh et al 2009b), hypoxia reoxygenation (Ngoh et al 2009a;Ngoh et al 2008;Ngoh et al 2011), osmotic stress (NaCl, sorbitol, and sucrose; Zachara et al 2004b;Zou et al 2007), ATP depletion (sodium arsenite; Zachara et al 2004b), ischemia reperfusion injury (Champattanachai et al 2007(Champattanachai et al , 2008Fulop et al 2007a, b;Hwang et al 2010;Jones et al 2008;Laczy et al 2010;Liu et al 2006Liu et al , 2007Nagy et al 2006;Ngoh et al 2008Ngoh et al , 2009aNgoh et al , b, 2011Pang et al 2002;Zou et al 2009), and trauma hemorrhage Yang et al 2006a;Zou et al 2007Zou et al , 2009). This response occurs in primary and transformed cells, as well as in tissues in vivo and ex vivo.…”
