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.

Octacalcium phosphate crystals directly stimulate expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase through p38 and JNK mitogen-activated protein kinases in articular chondrocytes [PDF]
Basic calcium phosphate (BCP) crystals, including hydroxyapatite, octacalcium phosphate (OCP) and carbonate-apatite, have been associated with severe osteoarthritis and several degenerative arthropathies.

p38 Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase Regulates Osteoblast Differentiation through Osterix [PDF]
p38 MAPK has been shown to regulate osteoblast differentiation. Inhibition of this kinase with inhibitors or dominant-negative mutant impedes osteoblast differentiation. Yet the molecular mechanism behind this regulation is not well understood. Here we provide evidence that the effect of p38 MAPK on osteoblast differentiation can be mediated by osterix

Immunomodulatory effects of 17-O-acetylacuminolide in RAW264.7 cells and HUVECs : involvement of MAPK and NF-κB pathways [PDF]
The terpenoid 17-O-acetylacuminolide (AA) was shown to inhibit the production of several inflammatory mediators. However, the mechanisms by which this compound elicited its anti-inflammatory activity remain to be elucidated.

Thrombin Protease-activated Receptor-1 Signals through Gq- and G13-initiated MAPK Cascades Regulating c-Jun Expression to Induce Cell Transformation [PDF]
Although the ability of G protein-coupled receptors to stimulate normal and aberrant cell growth has been intensely investigated, the precise nature of the molecular mechanisms underlying their transforming potential are still not fully understood.
