G-protein-coupled receptor agonists are powerful stimulators of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascades in cardiac myocytes. However, little is known regarding the physiological activation of enzymes downstream of MAPKs. We examined the activation of mitogen- and stress-activated protein kinase-1 (MSK1), a downstream target of MAPKs, in adult rat cardiac myocytes by phenylephrine and e...
MAP kinases mediate interleukin-13 effects on calcium signaling in human airway smooth muscle cells.
Interleukin-13 (IL-13) has been strongly implicated in the pathogenesis of allergic asthma through animal models that have shown that IL-13 is both necessary and sufficient to cause airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR). Airway smooth muscle (ASM) is a primary effector of AHR, and IL-13 increases the responsiveness of ASM, by increasing Ca(2+) release intracellularly, to bronchoconstrictors such as ...
Atractylodin is one of the major constituents of the rhizome of Atractylodes lancea, which is widely used in Korean traditional medicine as a remedy for the treatment of gastritis and gastric ulcers. Despite of a major constituent of widely used botanical to treat inflammatory responses little is known about anti-inflammatory effect of atractylodin in the human mast cell (HMC-1). Hence, we eval...
Background- Mechanical unloading of the heart with a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) leads to favorable changes in the biology of the failing cardiac myocyte. To determine a potential mechanism for these improvements, we examined the regulation of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) in the failing heart in the presence and absence of LVAD support. Methods and Results- We examined th...
Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling plays an important role during embryo development. We hypothesize that MAPK activation is a determinant of the fate of organogenesis-stage embryos exposed to insult. To test this hypothesis, CD1 mice were exposed to a model teratogen, hydroxyurea, on gestational day 9. Hydroxyurea exposure triggered a dramatic, transient increase in the activati...
Extracellular ATP and adenosine modulation of MAPKs is well described in different cells types, but few studies have addressed the effects of extracellular inosine on these kinases. Previous results showed that hydrogen peroxide and TNF-alpha increase extracellular inosine concentration in cultured Sertoli cells and this nucleoside protects Sertoli cells against hydrogen peroxide induced damage...
Over the course of HIV infection, virus replication is facilitated by the phosphorylation of HIV proteins by human ERK1 and ERK2 mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs). MAPKs are known to phosphorylate their substrates by first binding with them at a docking site. Docking site interactions could be viable drug targets because the sequences guiding them are more specific than phosphorylation ...
Polyubiquitination of proteins plays a critical role in the activation of immune cells. K63-linked polyubiquitin-binding proteins TGF-β-activated kinase 1 (TAK1)-binding protein (TAB)2 and TAB3 are implicated in NF-κB signaling via TAK1 activation. However, TAB2 alone is dispensable for NF-κB activation in embryonic fibroblasts, and the functional roles of TAB2 and TAB3 in immune cells has yet ...
Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signal transduction pathways are ubiquitous in eukaryotic cells, which transfer signals from the cell surface to the nucleus, controlling multiple cellular programs. MAPKs are activated by MAPK kinases [MAP2Ks or MAP/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) kinases (MEK)], which in turn are activated by MAPK kinase kinases (MAP3Ks). TAO2 is a MAP3K lev...
5-AminolevuHnate (ALA) photodynamic therapy (PDT) is being used clinically for the treatment of skin cancers. ALA is applied as a precursor of porphyrins serving as endogenous photosensitizers. Irradiation of HaCaT cells preincubated with 1 HIMALA for 24 h with red light of 570-750 nm at a dose of 4.5 .I/cm' leads to a 6-fold elevation of cellular c-Jun N-terminal kinase activity; phosphorylati...
