Jolkinolide B induces reactive oxygen species accumulation and endoplasmic reticulum stress and inhibits MAPK and AKT signaling activation in renal cancer cells [PDF]
To investigate the impact of Jolkinolide B (JB) on renal cell carcinoma (RCC), we treated RCC cell lines with various concentrations of JB (0, 5, 25, 50 and 100 μM) for 24 hours and assessed cell viability using the cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8 ...

The roles of MAPKs in disease [PDF]
MAP kinases transduce signals that are involved in a multitude of cellular pathways and functions in response to a variety of ligands and cell stimuli. Aberrant or inappropriate functions of MAPKs have now been identified in diseases ranging from cancer to inflammatory disease to obesity and diabetes.

Chromatin-tethered MAPKs [PDF]
Mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) are a family of protein kinases that are essential nodes in many cellular regulatory circuits including those that take place on DNA. Most members of the four MAPK subgroups that exist in canonical three kinase cascades-extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1 and 2 (ERK1/2), ERK5, c-Jun N-terminal kinases ...

MAPK and β-Catenin signaling: implication and interplay in orthodontic tooth movement
Orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) requires the orthodontic forces (compressive and tensile strain) to subject to the periodontal ligament and mechanosensory cells in the periodontium and to achieve mechanotransduction by mechanoreceptors.

Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide. In many cases, the treatment of the disease is limited due to the metastasis of cells to distant locations of the body through the blood and lymphatic drainage. Most of the anticancer therapeutic options focus mainly on the inhibition of tumor cell growth or the induction of cell death, and do not consider ...
