Inhibitory Effect of TCF7L2 on Pancreatic β-Cell Dedifferentiation via ERK/MAPK Signaling Pathway in Diabetes

open access: yesClinical Medicine Insights: Endocrinology and Diabetes
Background: Transcription factor 7-like 2 (TCF7L2) variants seem to affect diabetes susceptibility through β-cell dysfunction, underlying basis of which has been considered to be β-cell dedifferentiation rather than apoptotic β-cell death.

ERK-mediated activation of Fas apoptotic inhibitory molecule 2 (Faim2) prevents apoptosis of 661W cells in a model of detachment-induced photoreceptor cell death. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
In this study, we examined the role of Fas apoptotic inhibitory molecule 2 (Faim2), an inhibitor of the Fas signaling pathway, and its regulation by stress kinase signaling during Fas-mediated apoptosis of 661W cells, an immortalized photoreceptor-like ...

Understanding signaling cascades in melanoma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Understanding regulatory pathways involved in melanoma development and progression has advanced significantly in recent years. It is now appreciated that melanoma is the result of complex changes in multiple signaling pathways that affect growth control,

Hedgehog signaling pathway mediates invasion and metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma via ERK pathway [PDF]

open access: yesActa Pharmacologica Sinica, 2012
To investigate the role of Hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway in the invasion and metastasis of human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Eighty six HCC tissues samples and HCC cell line Bel-7402 were examined. The protein expression of sonic hedgehog (Shh), nuclear glioma-associated oncogene-1 (Gli1), MMP-9 and p-ERK1/2 in HCC was analyzed using ...

Tug-of-war via ERK signaling pathway for tissue organization – ERK activation to force generation

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Cell Biology, 2023
Extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) plays a crucial role in regulating collective cell behaviors observed in diverse biological phenomena. Emerging studies have shed light on the involvement of the ERK signaling pathway in the reception and generation of mechanical forces, thereby governing local mechanical interactions within multicellular ...

Sonic Hedgehog Signaling Pathway Mediates Proliferation and Migration of Fibroblast-Like Synoviocytes in Rheumatoid Arthritis via MAPK/ERK Signaling Pathway

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLSs) are the major effector cells that lead to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) synovitis and joint destruction. Our previous studies showed that Sonic Hedgehog (SHH) signaling pathway is involved in aberrant activation of RA-FLSs

Helicobacter pylori promotes gastric cancer progression by upregulating semaphorin 5A expression via ERK/MMP9 signaling

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Oncolytics, 2021
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is the strongest risk factor for the occurrence and development of gastric carcinoma. However, the molecular mechanism underlying H. pylori-induced pathogenesis has not yet been fully characterized.

ERK: A Double-Edged Sword in Cancer. ERK-Dependent Apoptosis as a Potential Therapeutic Strategy for Cancer

open access: yesCells, 2021
The RAF/MEK/ERK signaling pathway regulates diverse cellular processes as exemplified by cell proliferation, differentiation, motility, and survival. Activation of ERK1/2 generally promotes cell proliferation, and its deregulated activity is a hallmark ...

Inhibition of MAPK-Erk pathway in vivo attenuates aortic valve disease processes in Emilin1-deficient mouse model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Aortic valve disease (AVD) is a common condition with a progressive natural history, and presently, there are no pharmacologic treatment strategies. Elastic fiber fragmentation (EFF) is a hallmark of AVD, and increasing evidence implicates developmental ...
