Differential activation of p38MAPK isoforms by MKK6 and MKK3

TL;DR: It is shown that MKK3 and MKK6 are both essential for the activation of p38gamma and p38beta induced by environmental stress, whereas MKK 6 is the major p38Gamma activator in response to TNFalpha.
Journal ArticleDOI

p38γ and p38δ kinases regulate the Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)-induced cytokine production by controlling ERK1/2 protein kinase pathway activation

TL;DR: Deletion of p38γ and p38δ impaired the innate immune response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) ligand, by blocking the extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) activation in macrophages and dendritic cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lithium blocks the PKB and GSK3 dephosphorylation induced by ceramide through protein phosphatase-2A

TL;DR: It is hypothesised that the neuroprotective action of lithium may be due to the inhibition of the PP2A activation by apoptotic stimuli.
Journal ArticleDOI

Implication of Akt, ERK1/2 and alternative p38MAPK signalling pathways in human colon cancer cell apoptosis induced by green tea EGCG.

TL;DR: Using a combination of kinase inhibitors, it is found that EGCG-induced cell death is partially blocked by inhibiting Akt, ERK1/2 or alternative p38MAPK activity, suggesting potential use of this compound as chemotherapeutic agent for colon cancer treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pro-Oncogenic Role of Alternative p38 Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinases p38γ and p38δ, Linking Inflammation and Cancer in Colitis-Associated Colon Cancer

TL;DR: The results establish that p38γ and p38δ are central to colitis-associated colon cancer formation through regulation of hematopoietic cell response to injury, and validate p38αMAPK (MAPK14) and p 38δ as potential targets for cancer therapy.
