Cefotetan-bound human RKIP involves in Ras/Raf1/MEK/ERK signaling pathway
Cefotetan is widely used to treat bacterial infections in the clinic owing to its broad spectrum of antibacterial activity. In the present study, we demonstrate that cefotetan can bind to the conserved ligand-binding pocket of human Raf1 kinase ...

Secretogranin III promotes angiogenesis through MEK/ERK signaling pathway [PDF]
Secretogranin III (Scg3) was recently discovered as the first highly diabetic retinopathy-associated angiogenic factor, and its neutralizing antibody alleviated the disease with high efficacy in diabetic mice. Investigation of its molecular mechanisms will facilitate the translation of this novel therapy. Scg3 was reported to induce the phosphorylation

TRAF3IP3 promotes glioma progression through the ERK signaling pathway
TRAF3IP3 was reportedly associated with poor prognosis in patients with melanoma; however, its role in glioma is unknown. We aimed to demonstrate the relationship between TRAF3IP3 and glioma and to investigate the potential role of TRAF3IP3 in glioma.

Opioid-induced mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling in rat enteric neurons following chronic morphine treatment. [PDF]
Opioids, acting at μ opioid receptors, are commonly used for pain management. Chronic opioid treatment induces cellular adaptations, which trigger long-term side effects, including constipation mediated by enteric neurons.

Nitric oxide from inflammatory origin impairs neural stem cell proliferation by inhibiting epidermal growth factor receptor signaling [PDF]
Neuroinflammation is characterized by activation of microglial cells, followed by production of nitric oxide (NO), which may have different outcomes on neurogenesis, favoring or inhibiting this process.

Downregulating Notch counteracts KrasG12D-induced ERK activation and oxidative phosphorylation in myeloproliferative neoplasm. [PDF]
The Notch signaling pathway contributes to the pathogenesis of a wide spectrum of human cancers, including hematopoietic malignancies. Its functions are highly dependent on the specific cellular context. Gain-of-function NOTCH1 mutations are prevalent in

Dexamethasone inhibits repair of human airway epithelial cells mediated by glucocorticoid-induced leucine zipper (GILZ). [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Glucocorticoids (GCs) are a first-line treatment for asthma for their anti-inflammatory effects, but they also hinder the repair of airway epithelial injury.
