Mitogen-activated protein kinases and chemoresistance in pancreatic cancer cells.
BACKGROUND Chemoresistance is an important clinical problem in pancreatic cancer. As the mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) have been found to be involved in the development of chemoresistance in a variety of cancer cell lines, the aim of the current study was to assess the role and mechanism of MAPK signaling in mediating chemoresistance in pancreatic cancer cells. MATERIALS AND METHO...
متن کاملAlcohol activates activator protein-1 and mitogen-activated protein kinases in rat pancreatic stellate cells.
Alcohol is a major cause of both acute and chronic pancreatitis. Activated pancreatic stellate cells (PSCs) have recently been implicated in the pathogenesis of pancreatic inflammation and fibrosis. Herein, we examined the effect of ethanol and acetaldehyde on the activation of transcription factors and mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases in PSCs. PSCs were isolated from rat pancreas tissue...
متن کامل"Stress-responsive" mitogen-activated protein kinases (c-Jun N-terminal kinases and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinases) in the myocardium.
Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase Cascades: Terminology and Properties The best-characterized subfamilies of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) superfamily are the extracellularly responsive kinases (ERKs) and the two “stress-responsive” MAPK subfamilies, namely, the c-Jun N-terminal kinases (JNKs) and the p38-MAPKs. As yet, no single nomenclature has been determined, and the synonyms c...
متن کاملSmad4 mediates activation of mitogen-activated protein kinases by TGF-beta in pancreatic acinar cells.
Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) inhibits pancreatic acinar cell growth. In many cell types, TGF-beta mediates its growth inhibitory effects by activation of Smad proteins. Recently, it has been reported that Smad proteins may interact with the mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase signaling pathways. In this study, we report on the interactions between the TGF-beta and MAP kinase si...
