Neuronal p38 MAPK Signaling Contributes to Cisplatin-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy [PDF]
This study investigates the role of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activation in dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons in the development and progression of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN).

Identification of p38 MAPK inhibition as a neuroprotective strategy for combinatorial SMA therapy [PDF]
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a neurodegenerative disease caused by ubiquitous deficiency in the SMN protein. The identification of disease modifiers is key to understanding pathogenic mechanisms and broadening the range of targets for developing SMA ...

Evidence for the involvement of p38 MAPK activation in barnacle larval settlement. [PDF]
The barnacle Balanus ( = Amphibalanus) amphitrite is a major marine fouling animal. Understanding the molecular mechanism of larval settlement in this species is critical for anti-fouling research.

Heat Shock Protein 70 Protects the Heart from Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury through Inhibition of p38 MAPK Signaling. [PDF]
BackgroundHeat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) has been shown to exert cardioprotection. Intracellular calcium ([Ca2+]i) overload induced by p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK) activation contributes to cardiac ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury ...

Design, crystal structure determination, molecular dynamic simulation and MMGBSA calculations of novel p38-alpha MAPK inhibitors for combating Alzheimer's disease [PDF]
The hallmark of the Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the accumulation of aggregated, misfolded proteins. The cause for this accumulation is increased production of misfolded proteins and impaired clearance of them.

Dual p38/JNK mitogen activated protein kinase inhibitors prevent ozone-induced airway hyperreactivity in guinea pigs. [PDF]
Ozone exposure causes airway hyperreactivity and increases hospitalizations resulting from pulmonary complications. Ozone reacts with the epithelial lining fluid and airway epithelium to produce reactive oxygen species and lipid peroxidation products ...

Regulation of the p38-MAPK pathway by hyperosmolarity and by WNK kinases
p38-MAPK is a stress-response kinase activated by hyperosmolarity. Here we interrogated the pathways involved. We show that p38-MAPK signaling is activated by hyperosmotic stimulation in various solutions, cell types and colonic organoids ...
