MCP-1 stimulates, with distinct time courses, extracellular signal-related kinases (ERK1 and ERK2) and stress-activated protein kinases (SAPK1/JNK1 and SAPK2/p38).

Estradiol-induced phosphorylation of ERK1/2 in explants of the mouse cerebral cortex: the roles of heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) and MEK2. / Surprisingly, MEK2 but not MEK1 was the principal mediator of estradiol-induced activation of ERK. Our data demonstrate the requirement for Hsp90 in estrogen-induced activation of ERK1 and ERK2 by MEK2 in the developing mouse cerebral cortex and also provide insight into alternative mechanisms by which estradiol may influence cytoplasmic and nuclear events in responsive neurons via the MAP kinase cascade.

Here we show that in C6 glioma cells, transiently expressing the dominant-negative form of c-Ha-Ras (Asn-17) abrogated IFN-gamma-induced ERK1 and ERK2 activation. Furthermore, PD98059, a specific MEK1 inhibitor, also blocked this activation. These results indicate that p21ras and MEK1 are required for IFN-gamma-induced ERK1 and ERK2 activation.

Within 2 min, the MCPs (1-4) elicited a rapid and transient activation of MAPK in peripheral blood mononuclear cells and in HEK-293 cells expressing CCR2b. U0126, an inhibitor of MAPK-kinase (MEK) activation, not only prevented extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) activation but also significantly inhibited the MCP-mediated chemotaxis.

The present study was undertaken to investigate the effect of the HIV-1 tat gene on the expression of inducible nitric-oxide synthase (iNOS) in human U373MG astroglial cells and primary astroglia. / In addition, we show that extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) but not that p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) is involved in RSV-tat induced production of NO. Interestingly, PD98059, an inhibitor of the ERK pathway, and deltaERK2, a dominant-negative mutant of ERK2, inhibited RSV-tat-induced production of NO through the inhibition of C/EBPbeta but not that of NF-kappaB.

Chronic ethanol intake induces brain damage, although the mechanisms involved in this effect are not well understood. / We used cerebral cortex from control and chronic ethanol-fed rats, which received ethanol-liquid diet for 5 months and cultured of astrocytes exposed to 75 mM ethanol for 7 days. Our results demonstrate that chronic ethanol treatment up-regulates iNOS, COX-2 and IL-1beta in rat cerebral cortex and in cultured astrocytes. Under both experimental conditions, up-regulation of these inflammatory mediators and IL-1RI concomitantly occurs with the stimulation of IRAK and MAP kinases, including ERK1/2, p-38 and JNK, which trigger the downstream activation of oxidant-sensitive transcription factors NF-KB and AP-1.
