Requirement for ERK MAP kinase in mouse preimplantation development.
Preimplantation development is a crucial step for successful implantation and pregnancy. Although both compaction and blastocyst formation have been extensively studied, mechanisms regulating the early cell division stages before compaction have remained unclear. Here, we show that extracellular signal regulated kinase (ERK) mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase function is required for early ...
متن کاملThe map kinase ERK regulates renal activity of cyclin-dependent kinase 2 in experimental glomerulonephritis.
BACKGROUND In vitro, the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) is an intracellular convergence point of multiple stimuli, which affect the cell cycle. However, the role of ERK in cell cycle regulation in vivo is unknown. METHODS To address this issue, ERK activity was blocked both in vitro in mesangial cells (MC) and in vivo in experimental glomerulonephritis (GN) by a pharmacological i...
متن کاملPhosphorylation of Xenopus mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase kinase by MAP kinase kinase kinase and MAP kinase.
Xenopus 45-kDa mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase kinase (MAPKK) is a serine/threonine/tyrosine kinase, which activates MAP kinase (MAPK) by phosphorylating its threonine and tyrosine residues. MAPKK is active only when its threonine and/or serine residues are phosphorylated. We have identified from Xenopus eggs two protein kinases responsible for phosphorylation of MAPKK. The two kinases a...
متن کاملInteraction of MAP kinase with MAP kinase kinase: its possible role in the control of nucleocytoplasmic transport of MAP kinase.
The mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascade consisting of MAPK and its direct activator, MAPK kinase (MAPKK), is essential for signaling of various extracellular stimuli to the nucleus. Upon stimulation, MAPK is translocated to the nucleus, whereas MAPKK stays in the cytoplasm. It has been shown recently that the cytoplasmic localization of MAPKK is determined by its nuclear export sign...
متن کاملNormal endothelial but impaired arterial development in MAP-Kinase activated protein kinase 2 (MK2) deficient mice
Angiogenesis is a fundamental process during development and disease, and many details of the underlying molecular and cellular mechanisms are incompletely understood. Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)-activated protein kinase 2 (MK2), a major downstream target of p38 MAPK, has recently been identified as a regulator of Interleukin 1β dependent angiogenesis in vivo, and in vitro data sugg...
