Extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERK) 1 and 2 as a key molecule in pain research

Different Expression of Extracellular Signal-Regulated Kinases (ERK) 1/2 and Phospho-Erk Proteins in MBA-MB-231 and MCF-7 Cells after Chemotherapy with Doxorubicin or Docetaxel

Objective(s) Curative treatment of breast cancer patients using chemotherapy often fails as a result of intrinsic or acquired resistance of the tumor to the drug. ERK is one of the main components of the Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK cascade, which mediates signal from cell surface receptors to transcription factors to regulate different gene expression. In this study, cytotoxicity and the expression of Erk...

Extracellular Signal-Regulated Kinases

Cutting edge: extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1/2 function as integrators of TCR signal strength.

Altered signaling through the TCR is currently showing promise for immunotherapy. However, the molecular mechanisms are not completely understood. Therefore, we investigated whether varying the strength of TCR engagement in various human T cells would yield different second messenger responses. The kinetics and duration of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) activation, central to multi...
