1 18809662 FlaA-induced IL-8 production in T84 cells was inhibited by the p38 inhibitor in combination with either the JNK or ERK inhibitors.
2 18228247 The enhanced IL-6 production was dependent upon the activity of c-Jun kinase (JNK) and cFos.
3 18228247 Dual stimulation through CD40 and TLR7 markedly enhanced JNK activity.
4 18228247 The increased level of active JNK in dual-stimulated cells was accompanied by an increase in the level of active AP-1 monomers cJun and cFos.
5 18228247 The stimulation of B cells through both CD40 and TLR7 therefore enhanced the production of cytokines through increased JNK signaling and AP-1 activity.
6 21450974 PGN stimulates the activation of all three classes of MAPKs, extracellular signal-related kinase (ERK), c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), and p38(mapk) in macrophages, albeit with differential activation kinetics.
7 21450974 Using a selective inhibitor of JNK (SP600125) and JNK1/2 small interfering RNA (siRNA) knocked-down macrophages, it was observed that PGN-induced iNOS and NO expression is significantly inhibited.
8 21450974 This suggested that JNK MAPK plays an essential role in PGN-induced iNOS expression and NO production.
9 21450974 These results indicate that the JNK MAPK positively regulate PGN-induced iNOS and NO expression by activating NF-?B and AP-1 transcription factors, whereas the ERK pathway plays a negative regulatory role via affecting NF-?B activity.
10 21901556 E. coli activates TLR4, which is responsible for the activation of IL-12, extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK).
