Mitogen-activated protein kinases regulate susceptibility to ventilator-induced lung injury. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2008
Mechanical ventilation causes ventilator-induced lung injury in animals and humans. Mitogen-activated protein kinases have been implicated in ventilator-induced lung injury though their functional significance remains incomplete. We characterize the role

Expanding the Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase (MAPK) Universe: An Update on MAP4Ks

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Phosphorylation-mediated signaling cascades control plant growth and development or the response to stress conditions. One of the best studied signaling cascades is the one regulated by MITOGEN-ACTIVATED PROTEIN KINASEs (MAPKs).

c-Jun N-Terminal Kinase in Inflammation and Rheumatic Diseases. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The c-Jun N-terminal kinases (JNKs) are members of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family and are activated by environmental stress. JNK is also activated by proinflammatory cytokines, such as TNF and IL-1, and Toll-like receptor ligands ...

Protein kinases as therapeutic targets to develop anticancer drugs with natural alkaloids

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioscience-Landmark, 2021
Backgroud: Protein kinases play an important role in cell proliferation, differentiation, mobility and cell cycle arrest etc. These enzymes act as important targets in developing anticancer agents.

The kinases MSK1 and MSK2 act as negative regulators of Toll-like receptor signaling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The kinases MSK1 and MSK2 are activated 'downstream' of the p38 and Erk1/2 mitogen-activated protein kinases. Here we found that MSK1 and MSK2 were needed to limit the production of proinflammatory cytokines in response to stimulation of primary ...

Leishmania infection engages non-receptor protein kinases differentially to persist in infected hosts

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2016
Protein kinases play important roles in the regulation of cellular activities. In cells infected by pathogens, there is increasing appreciation that dysregulated expression of protein kinases promotes the success of intracellular infections.

Effects of MAP4K inhibition on neurite outgrowth

open access: yesMolecular Brain, 2023
Protein kinases are responsible for protein phosphorylation and are involved in important intracellular signal transduction pathways in various cells, including neurons; however, a considerable number of poorly characterized kinases may be involved in ...

Immunolocalization of dually phosphorylated MAPKs in dividing root meristem cells of Vicia faba, Pisum sativum, Lupinus luteus and Lycopersicon esculentum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Key message In plants, phosphorylated MAPKs display constitutive nuclear localization; however, not all studied plant species show co-localization of activated MAPKs to mitotic microtubules.

Total ginsenosides suppress monocrotaline-induced pulmonary hypertension in rats: involvement of nitric oxide and mitogen-activated protein kinase pathways

open access: yesJournal of Ginseng Research, 2016
Background: Ginsenosides have been shown to exert beneficial pharmacological effects on the central nervous, cardiovascular, and endocrine systems. We sought to determine whether total ginsenosides (TG) inhibit monocrotaline (MCT)-induced pulmonary ...
