Is MK2 (mitogen-activated protein kinase-activated protein kinase 2) the key for understanding post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression?
The phenotype of mitogen-activated protein kinase-activated protein kinase-2 (MK2) knockout mice revealed the essential role of this enzyme in post-transcriptional regulation of lipopolysaccharide-induced expression of cytokines such as tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, interleukin-6 and interferon-gamma, at the level of mRNA stability and translation. In the case of TNF-alpha, this regulatio...
متن کاملp38 mitogen-activated protein kinase and mitogen-activated protein kinase-activated protein kinase 2 (MK2) signaling in atrophic and hypertrophic denervated mouse skeletal muscle
BACKGROUND p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase has been implicated in both skeletal muscle atrophy and hypertrophy. T317 phosphorylation of the p38 substrate mitogen-activated protein kinase-activated protein kinase 2 (MK2) correlates with muscle weight in atrophic and hypertrophic denervated muscle and may influence the nuclear and cytoplasmic distribution of p38 and/or MK2. The present study...
متن کاملMitogen-activated protein kinase-activated protein kinase 2 (MK2) contributes to secondary damage after spinal cord injury.
The inflammatory response contributes importantly to secondary tissue damage and functional deficits after spinal cord injury (SCI). In this work, we identified mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)-activated protein kinase 2 (MAPKAPK2 or MK2), a downstream substrate of p38 MAPK, as a potential target using microarray analysis of contused spinal cord tissue taken at the peak of the inflammato...
متن کاملRedox-dependent dimerization of p38α mitogen-activated protein kinase with mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 3
The kinase p38α MAPK (p38α) plays a pivotal role in many biological processes. p38α is activated by canonical upstream kinases that phosphorylate the activation region. The purpose of our study was to determine whether such activation may depend on redox-sensing cysteines within p38α. p38α was activated and formed a disulfide-bound heterodimer with MAP2K3 (MKK3) in rat cardiomyocytes and isolat...
متن کاملInactivation of mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathway reduces caspase-14 expression in impaired keratinocytes
Objective(s):Several investigations have revealed that caspase-14 is responsible for the epidermal differentiation and cornification, as well as the regulation of moisturizing effect. However, the precise regulation mechanism is still not clear. This study was aimed to investigate the expression of caspase-14 in filaggrin-deficient normal human epidermal keratinocytes (NHEKs) and to explore the...
