PSMD12 promotes the activation of the MEK-ERK pathway by upregulating KIF15 to promote the malignant progression of liver cancer

open access: yesCancer Biology & Therapy, 2022
The tumor recurrence and drug resistance of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) threatened patients a lot. The mechanism should be further explored. The information of expression status and survival were available in public databases.

NGF activates NFAT via the MEK1/2 pathway in PC12 cells

open access: yesAll Life, 2022
Nerve growth factor (NGF) plays a key role in controlling growth, maintenance and survival of neurons as well as nociceptor development. Many of its critical actions are believed to be mediated by activation of corresponding transcription factors. Here I

The expression of survivin and its related genes in adipocyte-derived stem cell by demethylation [PDF]

open access: yesKorean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2010
BackgroundSurvivin is thought to contribute to stem cell maintenance partly by a hypomethylation mechanism. This study attempted to elucidate the signal transduction pathway of adipocyte-derived stem cells (ASCs) by using a demethylating agent, 5-aza-2 ...

Emerging MEK inhibitors

open access: yesExpert Opinion on Emerging Drugs, 2010
The Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK pathway is often activated by genetic alterations in upstream signaling molecules. Integral components of this pathway such as Ras and B-Raf are also activated by mutation. The Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK pathway has profound effects on proliferative, apoptotic and differentiation pathways.

Optimizing photoswitchable MEK [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2019
SignificanceControlling access to the active sites of kinases using photo-dimerizable domains revolutionizes the types of possible optogenetic perturbations of cell signaling. This technology, however, is useful only when there is strong kinase activity to harness.

The board and IT governance: The what, who and how

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Business Management, 2010
This paper discusses the importance of corporate governance and the need to implement it effectively in any organization. Furthermore, information technology is discussed along with its impact on enabling an organization to achieve its business goals and

How to MEK Muscle [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Cell, 2001
Myogenesis is inhibited by receptor activation of Ras through the MEK and ERK kinases, but the underlying mechanism is unclear. In this issue of Molecular Cell, Perry et al. show that activated MEK1 forms an inhibitory complex with myogenic transcription factors in the nucleus.

Anthrax, MEK and Cancer [PDF]

open access: yesCell Cycle, 2002
The MEK family of protein kinases plays key roles in regulating cellular responses to mitogens as well as environmental stress. Inappropriate activation of these kinases contributes to tumorigenesis. In contrast, anthrax lethal factor, the principal virulence factor of anthrax toxin, has been demonstrated to selectively inactivate MEKs. In this article

Atmospheric mixing ratios of methyl ethyl ketone (2-butanone) in tropical, boreal, temperate and marine environments [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2016
Methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) enters the atmosphere following direct emission from vegetation and anthropogenic activities, as well as being produced by the gas-phase oxidation of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) such as n-butane. This study presents the
