Mineralocorticoid receptor activation promotes vascular cell calcification.
OBJECTIVE Clinical studies demonstrate that mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) antagonism improves outcomes in cardiovascular patients and that vascular calcification correlates with adverse cardiac events. We have recently demonstrated that human vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) express functional MRs that, in response to aldosterone, modulate expression of osteogenic genes including alkaline...
متن کاملP38 MAP Kinase inhibition promotes primary tumour growth via VEGF independent mechanism
BACKGROUND The surgical insult induces an inflammatory response that activates P38 MAP kinases and solid tumours can also release cytokines. Therfore inhibition of these pathways may reduce tumour growth We set out to examine the effects of P38-MAPK inhibition on apoptosis, proliferation, VEGF release and cell cycle effects in-vitro and on primary tumour growth in-vivo. METHODS 4T-1 cells (2 ...
متن کاملInvolvement of ASK1 in Ca2+-induced p38 MAP kinase activation.
The mammalian mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase kinase kinase apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1 (ASK1) is a pivotal component in cytokine- and stress-induced apoptosis. It also regulates cell differentiation and survival through p38 MAP kinase activation. Here we show that Ca2+ signalling regulates the ASK1-p38 MAP kinase cascade. Ca2+ influx evoked by membrane depolarization in primary...
متن کاملSynthesis and Evaluation of Pyridinyltriazoles as Inhibitors of p38 MAP Kinase
Objective(s) Inhibitors of p38 MAP kinase are considered as suitable target in the treatment of inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and bowel inflammatory diseases. The development of 5-alkylthio-1-aryl-2-(4-pyridinyl) triazoles as inhibitors of p38 MAP kinase is described. These are analogues of 4- pyridinyl imidazole p38 MAP kinase inhibitor reported by Merck Research Laborator...
متن کاملA kinase-independent function of AKT promotes cancer cell survival
The serine-threonine kinase AKT regulates proliferation and survival by phosphorylating a network of protein substrates. In this study, we describe a kinase-independent function of AKT. In cancer cells harboring gain-of-function alterations in MET, HER2, or Phosphatidyl-Inositol-3-Kinase (PI3K), catalytically inactive AKT (K179M) protected from drug induced cell death in a PH-domain dependent m...
