Application

BIX has been used in cell viability assay.

Biochem/physiol Actions

BIX (BiP protein inducer X) induces the expression of the endoplasmic reticulum chaperone protein GRP78 (glucose regulated protein 78, BiP) leading to an attenuation of the unfolded protein response. BIX protects neuronal cells and retinal cells from ER-stress induced cell death.

Several intervention studies have demonstrated that exercise training has beneficial effects among cancer patients. However, older cancer patients are underrepresented in clinical trials, and only few exercise-based studies have focused specifically on older patients with cancer. In particular, research investigating the
