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

An overview of mammalian p38 mitogen-activated protein kinases, central regulators of cell stress and receptor signaling [version 1; peer review: 2 approved] [PDF]
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.

P38 mitogen-activated protein kinase and Parkinson’s disease [PDF]
AbstractParkinson’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, oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, cell proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis ...

Co-regulation of the transcription controlling ATF2 phosphoswitch by JNK and p38
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
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 ...

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.,
