Mitogen-activated protein kinase phosphatase-1 (MKP-1) in retinal ischemic preconditioning [PDF]
We previously described the phenomenon of retinal ischemic pre-conditioning (IPC) and we have shown the role of various signaling proteins in the protective pathways, including the mitogen-activated protein kinase p38. In this study we examined the role in IPC of mitogen-activated protein kinase phosphatase-1 (MKP-1), which inactivates p38.

A novel anti-mycobacterial function of mitogen-activated protein kinase phosphatase-1
Background Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in the world. To combat against this pathogen, immune cells release cytokines including tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), which is pivotal in the development of ...

Caenorhabditis elegans and probiotics interactions from a prolongevity perspective [PDF]
Probiotics exert beneficial effects on host health through different mechanisms of action, such as production of antimicrobial substances, competition with pathogens, enhancement of host mucosal barrier integrity and immunomodulation.

Regulation of the G2/M Transition in Rodent Oocytes [PDF]
Regulation of maturation in meiotically competent mammalian oocytes is a complex process involving the carefully coordinated exchange of signals between the somatic and germ cell compartments of the ovarian follicle via paracrine and cell–cell coupling ...

Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascades are important players in the overall representation of cellular signal transduction pathways, and the deregulation of MAPKs is involved in a variety of diseases. The activation of MAPK signals occurs through phosphorylation by MAPK kinases at conserved threonine and tyrosine (Thr-Xaa-Tyr) residues.

Differential regulation of anti-inflammatory genes by p38 MAP kinase and MAP kinase kinase 6. [PDF]
BackgroundConventional p38α inhibitors have limited efficacy in rheumatoid arthritis, possibly because p38 blockade suppresses the counter-regulatory mechanisms that limit inflammation.
