Schematic illustrating the proposed mechanism by which the PERK pathway modulates autophagy during RACK1‐mediated neuroprotection after TBI
Schematic illustrating the proposed mechanism by which the PERK pathway modulates autophagy during RACK1‐mediated neuroprotection after TBI. TBI upregulates RACK1, which interacts with PERK and activates the PERK/eIF2α/ATF4 signaling pathway, thereby promoting autophagy induction by increasing the transcription of multiple autophagy‐related genes, including LC3, Atg5, and Beclin1. Thus, RACK1 upregulation alleviates neuronal apoptosis after TBI
