An overview of mammalian p38 mitogen-activated protein kinases, central regulators of cell stress and receptor signaling [version 1; peer review: 2 approved] [PDF]
F1000Research, 2020 The p38 family is a highly evolutionarily conserved group of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) that is involved in and helps co-ordinate cellular responses to nearly all stressful stimuli.

Heat Shock Factor 1 Is a Substrate for p38 Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinases. [PDF]
Mol Cell Biol, 2016 Heat shock factor 1 (HSF1) monitors the structural integrity of the proteome. Phosphorylation at S326 is a hallmark for HSF1 activation, but the identity of the kinase(s) phosphorylating this site has remained elusive. We show here that the dietary agent

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.

Co-regulation of the transcription controlling ATF2 phosphoswitch by JNK and p38
Nature Communications, 2020 The ATF2 transcription factor is phosphorylated by different mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases. Here, the authors show that the functionally distinct MAP kinases JNK and p38 control ATF2 through different binding sites and differential ...

Stress Relief Techniques: p38 MAPK Determines the Balance of Cell Cycle and Apoptosis Pathways
Biomolecules, 2021 Protein signaling networks are formed from diverse and inter-connected cell signaling pathways converging into webs of function and regulation. These signaling pathways both receive and conduct molecular messages, often by a series of post-translation ...

Role of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase isoforms in murine skin inflammation induced by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate [PDF]
, 2011 p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase plays a pivotal role in skin inflammation. The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of the various p38 isoforms. p38 beta/delta-knockout-C57BL/6 mice were generated, studied in a 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol
