Helicobacter pylori Activates Mitogen-activated Protein Kinase Cascades and Induces Expression of the Proto-oncogenes c-fos and c-jun [PDF]
Helicobacter pylori is an etiological agent in the development of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma and gastric adenocarcinoma. Patients infected with H. pylori carry a 3-6-fold increased risk of developing cancer compared with uninfected individuals. H.

Role of protein kinase C and cyclic adenosine monophosphate in the regulation of tissue-type plasminogen activator, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1, and platelet-derived growth factor mRNA levels in human endothelial cells. Possible involvement of proto-oncogenes c-jun and c-fos. [PDF]
Activation of protein kinase C leads to a strong induction of tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) expression in endothelial cells. Using endothelial cells from human umbilical vein (HUVECs) and human aorta (HAECs), we have studied this regulation of t-PA and its inhibitor, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), at the mRNA level and have ...

Epidermal Growth Factor Stimulation of Stromelysin mRNA in Rat Fibroblasts Requires Induction of Proto-Oncogenes c-fos and c-jun and Activation of Protein Kinase C [PDF]
Stromelysin (transin) is a secreted metalloprotease that is transcriptionally induced by a variety of growth factors and oncogenes. We examined the necessity of specific secondary (protein kinase C) and tertiary (c-fos and c-jun protein products) messengers in the transactivation of stromelysin gene expression by epidermal growth factor (EGF).

Hexachlorobenzene-Induced Early Changes in Ornithine Decarboxylase and Protein Tyrosine Kinase Activities, Polyamines and c-Myc, c-Fos and c-Jun Proto-Oncogenes in Rat Liver [PDF]
El hexaclorobenceno (HCB) es un compuesto químico lipófilo que se distribuye ampliamente en el medio ambiente. Se sabe que el HCB causa tumores hepáticos en animales de experimentación. En el presente estudio se investigó el efecto in vivo del tratamiento con HCB sobre las actividades de la ornitina descarboxilasa (ODC) y la proteína tirosina quinasa ...

Paraquat (methyl viologen, PQ) is a widely used herbicide that produces oxygen-derived free radicals and severely injures human lungs. In this study we examined the effects of PQ on the protein kinase C (PKC), ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) and c-jun oncogene expression in WI-38 human lung cells.
