Adhesion of monocytes to type I collagen stimulates an APP-dependent proinflammatory signaling response and release of Aβ1-40

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation, 2010
Background Amyloid precursor protein (APP) is a ubiquitously expressed cell surface protein reported to be involved in mediating cell-cell or cell-matrix interactions.

p38 regulates the tumor suppressor PDCD4 via the TSC-mTORC1 pathway

open access: yesCell Stress, 2021
Programmed cell death protein 4 (PDCD4) exerts critical functions as tumor suppressor and in immune cells to regulate inflammatory pro-cesses. The phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) promotes degradation of PDCD4 via mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (

Obesity-induced insulin resistance in human skeletal muscle is characterised by defective activation of p42/p44 MAP kinase.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Insulin resistance (IR), an impaired cellular, tissue and whole body response to insulin, is a major pathophysiological defect of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Although IR is closely associated with obesity, the identity of the molecular defect(s) underlying

Regulation of innate immune response by MAP kinase phosphatase-1 [PDF]

open access: yesCellular Signalling, 2007
Mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase cascades are signal transduction pathways that play pivotal regulatory roles in the biosynthesis of pro-inflammatory cytokines. MAP kinase phosphatase (MKP)-1, an archetypal member of the MKP family, is essential for the dephosphorylation/deactivation of MAP kinases p38 and JNK.

Mechanisms of tumor necrosis factor-α-induced interleukin-6 synthesis in glioma cells

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation, 2010
Background Interleukin (IL)-6 plays a pivotal role in a variety of CNS functions such as the induction and modulation of reactive astrogliosis, pathological inflammatory responses and neuroprotection.

Exploitation of Host Epithelial Signaling Networks by Respiratory Bacterial Pathogens

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2003
Although tremendous effort has been put towards identifying the surface molecules of nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi) for vaccine development over the past decades, it is only recently that we have begun to appreciate the intricate host ...

Tryptase activation of immortalized human urothelial cell mitogen-activated protein kinase. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The pathogenesis of interstitial cystitis/painful bladder syndrome (IC/PBS) is multifactorial, but likely involves urothelial cell dysfunction and mast cell accumulation in the bladder wall.

The Role of Big Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase 1 (BMK1) / Extracellular Signal-Regulated Kinase 5 (ERK5) in the Pathogenesis and Progression of Atherosclerosis

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2012
Big mitogen-activated protein kinase 1 (BMK1), also known as extracellular signal-regulated kinase 5 (ERK5), is a newly identified member of the mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase family.

MAP Kinase PrMPK9-1 Contributes to the Self-Incompatibility Response [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 2017
Mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) form important signaling modules for a variety of cellular responses in eukaryotic cells. In plants, MAPKs play key roles in growth and development as well as in immunity/stress responses. Pollen-pistil interactions are critical early events regulating pollination and fertilization and involve many signaling ...

Activation of adherent vascular neutrophils in the lung during acute endotoxemia

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2002
Background Neutrophils constitute the first line of defense against invading microorganisms. Whereas these cells readily undergo apoptosis under homeostatic conditions, their survival is prolonged during inflammatory reactions and they become ...
