p38 Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase and Hematologic Malignancies
Abstract Context. —p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling has been implicated in responses ranging from apoptosis to cell cycle, induction of expression of cytokine genes, and differentiation. This plethora of activators conveys the complexity of the p38 pathway.

Inflammation is a natural host defensive process that is largely regulated by macrophages during the innate immune response. Mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) are proline-directed serine and threonine protein kinases that regulate many ...

Background: Thromboxane A2 (TXA2) induces platelet aggregation and promotes thrombus formation. Although ginsenoside Ro (G-Ro) from Panax ginseng is known to exhibit a Ca2+-antagonistic antiplatelet effect, whether it inhibits Ca2+-dependent cytosolic ...

The case for inhibiting p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase in heart failure
This minireview discusses the evidence that the inhibition of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinases (p38 MAPKs) maybe of therapeutic value in heart failure. Most previous experimental studies, as well as past and ongoing clinical trials, have focussed on

Mitogen-activated protein kinases regulate susceptibility to ventilator-induced lung injury. [PDF]
Mechanical ventilation causes ventilator-induced lung injury in animals and humans. Mitogen-activated protein kinases have been implicated in ventilator-induced lung injury though their functional significance remains incomplete. We characterize the role

Role of p38 Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinases in Preconditioning [PDF]
Preconditioning, the phenomenon whereby brief episodes of ischemia or pharmacological agents protect the myocardium against subsequent ischemic injury, consists of an early and a late phase.1 The early phase develops immediately and disappears within 1 to 2 hours of ischemic preconditioning stimulus, whereas the late phase, also known as the “second ...

Defensins are antimicrobial peptides composed of 3 conserved disulfide bridges, a β-sheet, and both hydrophobic and cationic amino acids. In this study, we aimed to demonstrate the immunomodulation role of avian β-defensin 8 (AvBD8) in a chicken ...
