Nitration of p38 MAPK in the placenta: association of nitration with reduced catalytic activity of p38 MAPK in pre-eclampsia [PDF]
Peroxynitrite, a potent pro-oxidant formed from the interaction of superoxide and nitric oxide, has been widely reported to be nitrating tyrosine residues in proteins resulting in the formation of nitrotyrosine. Biological nitration of tyrosine, a footprint of oxidative injury, has been found to occur in various pathological states including pre ...

Neurons are sensitive to low oxygen (hypoxia) and employ a conserved pathway to combat its effects. Here, we show that p38 MAP Kinase (MAPK) modulates this hypoxia response pathway in C. elegans.

A Radical Role for p38 MAPK in Tumor Initiation [PDF]
It is established that p38 MAPK can negatively regulate tumorigenesis, but the mechanism is incompletely understood. A new study in this issue of Cancer Cell shows that p38 MAP kinase plays a selective role in tumor initiation mediated by oxidative stress.

Background Human adenovirus type 19 (HAdV-19) is a major cause of epidemic keratoconjunctivitis, the only ocular adenoviral infection associated with prolonged corneal inflammation. In this study, we investigated the role of p38 mitogen-activated protein

p38 Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase Regulates Vasoconstriction in Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats
We investigated whether p42/p44 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and/or p38 MAPK participates in the regulation of vascular smooth muscle contraction by endothelin-1 (ET-1) in Wistar-Kyoto rat (WKY) and spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR).

Enhanced expression of WD repeat-containing protein 35 via CaMKK/AMPK activation in bupivacaine-treated Neuro2a cells. [PDF]
We previously reported that bupivacaine induces reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activation and nuclear factor-kappa B activation, resulting in an increase in expression of WD repeat-containing protein

Background The circadian clock is the basis for biological time keeping in eukaryotic organisms. The clock mechanism relies on biochemical signaling pathways to detect environmental stimuli and to regulate the expression of clock-controlled genes ...

The TGFβ-induced phosphorylation and activation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase is mediated by MAP3K4 and MAP3K10 but not TAK1 [PDF]
The signalling pathways downstream of the transforming growth factor beta (TGFβ) family of cytokines play critical roles in all aspects of cellular homeostasis.

p38 MAPK, Microglial Signaling, and Neuropathic Pain
Accumulating evidence over last several years indicates an important role of microglial cells in the pathogenesis of neuropathic pain. Signal transduction in microglia under chronic pain states has begun to be revealed. We will review the evidence that p38 MAPK is activated in spinal microglia after nerve injury and contributes importantly to ...

A role for p38 MAPK in the regulation of ciliary motion in a eukaryote
Background Motile cilia are essential to the survival and reproduction of many eukaryotes; they are responsible for powering swimming of protists and small multicellular organisms and drive fluids across respiratory and reproductive surfaces in mammals ...
