The mitogen-activated protein kinases system (MAP kinase cascade): its role in skin signal transduction. A review

Journal of Dermatological Science, 1996
Mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases are proline-directed kinases which are downstream components of a pathway involving p21ras and the serine/threonine kinase Raf-1. They represent an important link between the signal transduction processes at the level of the plasma membrane and the final nuclear events.

Tumor Evasion of the Immune System: Inhibiting p38 MAP Kinase Signaling Restores the Function of Dendritic Cells.

Blood, 2005
Abstract Dendritic cells (DCs) from cancer patients are functionally defective, however, molecular mechanisms underlying are still poorly understood. In this study, we used the murine 5TGM1 myeloma model to examine the effect and mechanism of tumor-derived factors on the differentiation and function of DCs. Myeloma cells (5TGM1) or tumor

Impact of PAMAM delivery systems on signal transduction pathways in vivo: Modulation of ERK1/2 and p38 MAP kinase signaling in the normal and diabetic kidney

International Journal of Pharmaceutics, 2016
The in vivo impact of two generation 6 cationic polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers on cellular signaling via extracellular-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK), as well as their relationship to epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), were studied in the normal and/or diabetic rat kidney. A single 10mg/kg/i.p

Studies on MAP Kinase Signaling in the Immune System

2010
The primary function of the immune system is to protect the organism from invading pathogens. In response to pathogen invasion, multiple signaling pathways are activated in immune cells, leading to diverse immune defense mechanisms. Chief among these pathways is the activation of MAPKs, which are crucial for transcriptional and nontranscriptional ...

Methods to Study MAP Kinase Signalling in the Central Nervous System

2010
The mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family of intracellular signal transducers includes ERK1/2, ERK5, JNK/SAPK, and p38 and has been shown to control survival, proliferation and differentiation of cells composing the central and peripheral nervous system.
