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

Therapeutic 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.

Mitogen Activated Protein kinase signal transduction pathways in the prostate

Cell Communication and Signaling, 2004
The biochemistry of the mitogen activated protein kinases ERK, JNK, and p38 have been studied in prostate physiology in an attempt to elucidate novel mechanisms and pathways for the treatment of prostatic disease.

KCl Mediates K+ Channel-Activated Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinases Signaling in Wound Healing

Archives of Plastic Surgery, 2015
Background Wound healing is an interaction of a complex signaling cascade of cellular events, including inflammation, proliferation, and maturation. K+ channels modulate the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway. Here, we investigated

Src Family Kinases and p38 Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinases Regulate Pluripotent Cell Differentiation in Culture. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
Multiple pluripotent cell populations, which together comprise the pluripotent cell lineage, have been identified. The mechanisms that control the progression between these populations are still poorly understood.

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

Neurobiology 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

The role of lipolysis in mediating the proinflammatory effects of very low density lipoproteins in mouse peritoneal macrophages

Journal of Lipid Research, 2006
Hypertriglyceridemia is an important risk factor for atherosclerosis, especially in obesity. Macrophages are one of the primary cell types involved in atherogenesis and are thought to contribute to lesion formation through both lipid accumulation and ...

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

Journal 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 ...

Osmostress induces autophosphorylation of Hog1 via a C-terminal regulatory region that is conserved in p38α. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Many protein kinases require phosphorylation at their activation loop for induction of catalysis. Mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) are activated by a unique mode of phosphorylation, on neighboring Tyrosine and Threonine residues.

ABL kinase‐dependent phosphorylation of SH proteins promotes their direct interaction with CRK family SH2 domains

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
CT10 regulator of kinase (CRK) and CRK‐Like (CRKL) are signaling adaptors driving cell adhesion, motility, differentiation, and proliferation. SH2‐domain containing (SH) proteins are enriched in YXXP motifs which when phosphorylated create preferred binding sites for CRK family SH2 domains.

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

Acta 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 ...
