P38 mitogen-activated protein kinase and Parkinson’s disease [PDF]
Parkinson’s disease, the second major neurodegenerative disease, has created a great impact on the elder people. Although the mechanisms underlying Parkinson’s disease are not fully understood, considerable evidence suggests that neuro-inflammation ...

Activation of p38 Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase in Gaucher's Disease. [PDF]
Gaucher's disease is caused by defects in acid β-glucosidase 1 (GBA1) and has been also proposed as an inflammatory disease. GBA1 cleaves glucosylceramide to form ceramide, an established bioactive lipid, and defects in GBA1 lead to aberrant accumulation

Osteocrin ameliorates adriamycin nephropathy via p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase inhibition [PDF]
Natriuretic peptides exert multiple effects by binding to natriuretic peptide receptors (NPRs). Osteocrin (OSTN) binds with high affinity to NPR-C, a clearance receptor for natriuretic peptides, and inhibits degradation of natriuretic peptides and ...

Glycolytic Regulation of Intestinal Stem Cell Self-Renewal and DifferentiationSummary
Background and Aims: The intestinal mucosa undergoes a continual process of proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. An imbalance in this highly regimented process within the intestinal crypts is associated with several intestinal pathologies ...

The significance of ERK5 catalytic-independent functions in disease pathways
Extracellular signal-regulated kinase 5 (ERK5), also known as BMK1 or MAPK7, represents a recent addition to the classical mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family.

Phosphorylation of NFATc4 by p38 Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinases [PDF]
Nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) is implicated in multiple biological processes, including cytokine gene expression, cardiac hypertrophy, and adipocyte differentiation. A conserved NFAT homology domain is identified in all NFAT members.

Crystal Structure of p38 Mitogen-activated Protein Kinase [PDF]
p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase is activated by environmental stress and cytokines and plays a role in transcriptional regulation and inflammatory responses. The crystal structure of the apo, unphosphorylated form of p38 kinase has been solved at 2.3 A resolution. The fold and topology of p38 is similar to ERK2 (Zhang, F., Strand, A., Robbins, D.,

ASK1 Mediates Nur77 Expression in T-Cell Receptor Mediated Thymocyte Apoptosis
: Apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1 (ASK1) is a mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase (MAPKKK) that activates downstream JNK and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) to relay death signals into cells in response to various ...
