Heat shock protein 90 mediates the protective effects of vericiguat on myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury by inhibiting toll-like receptor 4 and c-Jun N-terminal kinases [PDF]
Objective(s): This study aimed to investigate whether vericiguat exerts a protective effect against myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI) by inhibiting toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and c-Jun N-terminal kinases (JNK) activation and whether heat ...

Serum CA19-9 and CEA levels, serum CAT, GSH, oxidised glutathione levels, 8-dihidro-2'-deoksiguanosina and F2-isoprostanes levels in colorectal cancer patients and Lactobacillus: A randomised double-blind controlled trial [PDF]
Background: Oxidative stress (OS) plays a crucial role in colorectal cancer (CRC) progression. Lactobacillus has been proposed as a potential modulator of OS. This randomised controlled trial aimed to evaluate the effects of Lactobacillus supplementation

Cell-to-cell communication mediates glioblastoma progression in Drosophila
Glioblastoma (GB) is the most aggressive and lethal tumour of the central nervous system (CNS). GB cells grow rapidly and display a network of projections, ultra-long tumour microtubes (TMs), that mediate cell to cell communication.

JNK and p38 gene and protein expression during liver ischemia-reperfusion in a rat model treated with silibinin [PDF]
Objective(s): Signal transduction of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) is activated during ischemia. In this study, c-Jun N-terminal Kinase (JNK) and p38 MAPK (p38) gene and protein expression were evaluated as two members of the MAPK family ...

C-Jun N-terminal kinases/c-Jun and p38 pathways cooperate in ceramide-induced neuronal apoptosis [PDF]
Understanding the regulation of the apoptotic program in neurons by intracellular pathways is currently a subject of great interest. Recent results suggest that c-Jun N-terminal kinases (JNK), mitogen-activated protein kinases and the transcription ...

Over-expression of MAP kinase phosphatase-2 enhances adhesion molecule expression and protects against apoptosis in human endothelial cells [PDF]
In this study we used adenovirus infection to overexpress the dual specific phosphatase, MAP kinase phosphatase-2 (MKP-2), in human umbilical vein endothelial cells and examined inflammatory protein expression and apoptosis, two key features of ...
