MKK7, the essential regulator of JNK signaling involved in cancer cell survival: a newly emerging anticancer therapeutic target

open access: yesTherapeutic Advances in Medical Oncology, 2019
One of the mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs), c-Jun NH2-terminal protein kinase (JNK) plays an important role in regulating cell fate, such as proliferation, differentiation, development, transformation, and apoptosis.

Tyrosine kinases in rheumatoid arthritis

open access: yesJournal of Inflammation, 2011
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an inflammatory, polyarticular joint disease. A number of cellular responses are involved in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis, including activation of inflammatory cells and cytokine expression. The cellular responses

Targeting ERK, an Achilles' Heel of the MAPK pathway, in cancer therapy

open access: yesActa Pharmaceutica Sinica B, 2018
The mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) pathway, often known as the RAS-RAF-MEK-ERK signal cascade, functions to transmit upstream signals to its downstream effectors to regulate physiological process such as cell proliferation, differentiation ...

Survival-Promoting Activity of Inhibitors of Cyclin-Dependent Kinases on Primary Neurons Correlates with Inhibition of c-Jun Kinase-1

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 1997
Cyclin-dependent kinases and mitogen-activated protein kinases have been implicated in the regulation of cellular survival and apoptosis. We tested the effect of two mitogen-activated/cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors, olomoucine and butyrolactone I, on

Mitogen-activated protein kinases in atherosclerosis

open access: yesPostępy Higieny i Medycyny Doświadczalnej, 2014
Intracellular signalling cascades, in which MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinases) intermediate, are responsible for a biological response of a cell to an external stimulus. MAP kinases, which include ERK1/2 (extracellular signalling-regulated kinase), JNK (c-Jun N-terminal kinase) and p 38 MAPK, regulate the activity of many proteins, enzymes and ...
