p38 MAP kinase-dependent regulation of endothelial cell permeability.
We have previously shown that thrombin induces endothelial cell barrier dysfunction via cytoskeleton activation and contraction and have determined the important role of endothelial cell myosin light chain kinase (MLCK) in this process. In the present study we explored p38 MAP kinase as a potentially important enzyme in thrombin-mediated endothelial cell contractile response and permeability. T...
متن کاملp38 MAP kinase modulates liver cell volume through inhibition of membrane Na+ permeability.
In hepatocytes, Na+ influx through nonselective cation (NSC) channels represents a key point for regulation of cell volume. Under basal conditions, channels are closed, but both physiologic and pathologic stimuli lead to a large increase in Na+ and water influx. Since osmotic stimuli also activate mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase pathways, we have examined regulation of Na+ permeability a...
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 کاملVascular endothelial dysfunction and superoxide anion production in heart failure are p38 MAP kinase-dependent.
OBJECTIVE The mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase system, especially the p38 MAP kinase, is activated in chronic heart failure (CHF). However, the role of vascular p38 MAP kinase in CHF has not been analyzed yet. METHODS AND RESULTS In aortic rings from rats with CHF 10 weeks after myocardial infarction, acetylcholine-induced relaxation was attenuated (maximum relaxation, Rmax: 54+/-5%) co...
متن کاملApplication of 3D-QSAR on a Series of Potent P38-MAP Kinase Inhibitors
One of the most applied methods in drug industry for development of new drugs is 3D-QSAR methodology. As p38-mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38-MAPK) plays a crucial role in regulating the production of such proinflammatory cytokines as tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-1, emerging as an attractive target for new anti-inflammatory agents, we used a 3D-QSAR based method of Compa...
