Obesity and type 2 diabetes are characterized by insulin resistance, and the common basis of these events is a chronic and systemic inflammatory process marked by the activation of the c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) and inhibitor-?B kinase (IKK?)/nuclear factor-?B (NF?B) pathways, up-regulated cytokine synthesis, and endoplasmic reticulum dysfunction.
|

21896669
|
Western blotting was used to quantify the expression and phosphorylation of insulin receptor, insulin receptor substrate 1, and Akt and of inflammatory mediators that modulate insulin signaling in a negative manner (IKK?, JNK, and inducible nitric oxide synthase).

|
Levels of phosphorylated p47(phox), active Rac1, Nox activity, ROS generation, Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase (JNK) 1/2 phosphorylation, and caspase-3 activity were significantly higher in the ZDF islets than the lean control rat islets.

Cell death could be elicited by overexpressing the catalytic domain of MAPK kinase kinase 1, a specific activator of JNK and nuclear factor-kappaB, which does not recruit ERK-1/2 or p38.
|

11147798
|
Kinase assays indicate that the inhibitors block activation of the transcription factor c-Jun by JNK.
|
7 |
11147798
|
All-D retro-inverso peptides penetrate cells as efficiently as the L-enantiomers, decrease c-Jun activation by JNK, and remain highly stable inside cells.

|
During a yeast tri-hybrid assay, phosphorylation of Ser(307) by JNK1 disrupted the interaction between the catalytic domain of the insulin receptor and the PTB domain of IRS-1.
|

12011047
|
In this study, subjecting rat islets to oxidative stress activates JNK, p38 MAPK, and protein kinase C, preceding the decrease of insulin gene expression.
|
10 |
12011047
|
These results were correlated with changes in the binding of the important transcription factor PDX-1 to the insulin promoter; adenoviral overexpression of DN-JNK preserved PDX-1 DNA binding activity in the face of oxidative stress, whereas wild type JNK overexpression decreased PDX-1 DNA binding activity.
|
11 |
12011047
|
In conclusion, activation of JNK is involved in the reduction of insulin gene expression by oxidative stress, and suppression of the JNK pathway protects beta-cells from oxidative stress.
|

|
Activation of the c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) by proinflammatory cytokines inhibits insulin signaling, at least in part, by stimulating phosphorylation of rat/mouse insulin receptor substrate 1 (Irs1) at Ser(307) (Ser(312) in human IRS1).
|
13 |
12417588
|
Insulin stimulation of JNK activity required phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and Grb2 signaling.
|
14 |
12417588
|
However, the direct binding of JNK to Irs1 was not required for its activation by insulin, whereas direct binding was required for Ser(307) phosphorylation of Irs1.
|
15 |
12417588
|
Insulin-stimulated Ser(307) phosphorylation was reduced 80% in cells lacking JNK1 and JNK2 or in cells expressing a mutant Irs1 protein lacking the JNK binding site.
|
16 |
12417588
|
These results support the hypothesis that JNK is a negative feedback regulator of insulin action by phosphorylating Ser(307) in Irs1.
|
17 |

|
TNFalpha, which activates three different MAPKs [ERK, p38, and jun amino terminal kinase (JNK)], also induces insulin resistance.
|
18 |
12554784
|
Finally, the MKK7 mutant, which activates JNK, reduced tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS-1 and IRS-2 and IRS-associated PI3K activity without affecting expression of the IR, IRS-1, or IRS-2.
|
19 |
12554784
|
In the context of our earlier report showing down-regulation of glucose transporter 4 by MEK1-ERK and MKK6/3-p38, the present findings suggest that chronic activation of ERK, p38, or JNK can induce insulin resistance by affecting glucose transporter expression and insulin signaling, though via distinctly different mechanisms.
|

12683939
|
The effects of JNK activation on apoptosis were demonstrated by the observations that (i). its inhibition by dicumarol prevented caspase-3 activation and apoptosis, (ii). adenoviral expression of the JNK-interacting scaffold protein JIP-1/IB-1 increased AICA-riboside-induced JNK activation and apoptosis.
|
21 |
12683939
|
It is concluded that prolonged stimulation of AMPK can induce apoptosis of insulin-producing cells through an activation pathway that involves JNK, and subsequently, caspase-3.
|
22 |

|
Intriguingly, nerve growth factor antagonized the enhanced mitogenic response of SCs to neuregulin1-beta1 and inhibited the glucose-induced down-regulation of Cav-1 transcription, mRNA, and protein expression through p75NTR-dependent activation of JNK.
|
23 |
12679365
|
Our data suggest that Cav-1 down-regulation may contribute to altered neurotrophism in DPN by enhancing the response of SCs to neuregulins and that p75NTR-mediated JNK activation may provide a mechanism for the neurotrophic modulation of hyperglycemic stress.

|
In 3T3-L1 and Hep G2 cells, phosphorylation of IRS-1 at Ser307 in response to TNF-alpha treatment correlated with phosphorylation of JNK, c-Jun, and degradation of IkappaBalpha.
|
25 |
12714600
|
Taken together, these data suggest that serine phosphorylation of IRS-1 in response to TNF-alpha is mediated, in part, by JNK and IKK.
|
26 |
12714600
|
Interestingly, aspirin treatment inhibited the phosphorylation of IRS-1 at Ser307 as well as the phosphorylation of JNK, c-Jun, and degradation of IkappaBalpha.
|

|
The c-Jun NH(2)-terminal kinases (JNKs) phosphorylate and activate members of the activator protein-1 (AP-1) transcription factor family and other cellular factors implicated in regulating altered gene expression, cellular survival and proliferation in response to cytokines and growth factors, noxious stimuli and oncogenic transformation.
|
28 |
12947315
|
The c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) activation occurs after islet isolation, oxidative stress, and proinflammatory cytokine (PIC) exposure to beta-cells.
|
29 |
12947315
|
Viability was analyzed by a colorimetric assay, islet mass by DNA content, JNK activity by Western blots, AP-1 nuclear activity with a promoter-Luciferase AP-1 responsive construct, and c-Fos, Jun-D, and ATF-2 nuclear activities by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.
|
30 |
12947315
|
These effects were associated with reduction in JNK targets, including the nuclear activities of transcription factors AP-1, c-Jun, c-Fos, Jun-D and ATF-2, involved in apoptosis in beta-cells.
|
31 |
12952969
|
IL-6, in contrast to TNF-alpha, did not increase pS-307 of insulin-receptor substrate (IRS)-1 or JNK activation.
|
32 |
14532296
|
However, selective JNK inhibition had no effect on caspase-8 activation, and selective caspase-8 inhibition only partially suppressed apoptosis and c-Jun activation, indicating that caspase-8 may partially act upstream of the JNK pathway.
|
33 |
14532296
|
Fibrillogenic amylin can evoke a JNK1-mediated apoptotic pathway, which is partially dependent and partially independent of caspase-8, and in which caspase-3 acts as a common downstream effector.
|
34 |

|
Effects of diverse stimuli, including insulin, muscle contraction, and phorbol 12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA), were determined on phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling modules (c-Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase [JNK], p38 MAPK, and extracellular signal-related kinase [ERK1/2]) in skeletal muscle from lean and ob/ob mice.
|
35 |
15161746
|
Insulin increased phosphorylation of JNK, p38 MAPK, and ERK1/2 in isolated extensor digitorum longus (EDL) and soleus muscle from lean mice in a time- and dose-dependent manner.
|
36 |
15161746
|
In addition, PMA-induced phosphorylation of JNK and ERK1/2 are preserved, whereas p38 MAPK pathways are impaired in skeletal muscle from ob/ob mice.
|
37 |
15618349
|
Another proteasome inhibitor, lactacystin, also stimulated JNK activation, caused activation of caspase-3, suppressed cell viability, and induced apoptosis in betaTC3 and rat INS-1E cells.
|
38 |
15780081
|
Inhibition of p38(mapk) or p42/44(mapk) activities did not affect LDL-induced TGF-beta1, CTGF, and collagen I expression, whereas inhibition of c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK) suppressed LDL-induced TGF-beta, CTGF, and collagen I expression.
|
39 |
15780081
|
These findings implicate JNK pathway and TGF-beta1 as key players in LDL signaling leading to CTGF and collagen I expression in mesangial cells.

Indeed, suppression of the JNK pathway in diabetic mice improves insulin resistance and ameliorates glucose tolerance.
|
41 |
15831571
|
In insulin-secreting rat INS-1 cells cultured in the presence of 11 mm glucose, combined pharmacological blockade of L- and T-type Ca(2+) channels suppressed IL-1beta-induced in vitro phosphorylation of the JNK substrate c-jun and reduced IL-1beta-stimulated activation of JNK1/2 as assessed by immunoblotting.
|
42 |
15831571
|
Our data suggest that Ca(2+) plays a permissive role in IL-1beta activation of the JNK signaling pathway in insulin-secreting cells.
|
43 |
15948675
|
Activation of the JNK pathway interferes with insulin action and reduces insulin biosynthesis, and suppression of the JNK pathway in diabetic mice improves insulin resistance and beta-cell function, leading to amelioration of glucose tolerance.
|
44 |
16002993
|
FcepsilonRI-mediated tyrosine phosphorylation of Syk, Gab2, and phospholipase C-gamma1, and activation of c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAP kinase), and inhibitor of nuclear factor kappaB kinase (IKK), and generation of Rac1 are unaffected in cells overexpressing the truncated Cbl-b in the lipid raft.
|
45 |
16039605
|
Thus, lack of insulin brain stimulation induces JNK hyperphosphorylation followed by hyperphosphorylation of tau and neurofilament, and ultrastructural cellular damage, that over time may induce decrease in cognition and learning disabilities.
|
46 |
16280646
|
Furthermore, the addition of a dominant-negative form of c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) inhibited the oxidative stress-induced PDX-1 translocation, suggesting an essential role of JNK in mediating the phenomenon.
|
47 |
16280646
|
Taken together, the oxidative stress-mediated activation of the JNK pathway leads to nucleocytoplasmic translocation of PDX-1 and thus is likely involved in the progression of beta-cell dysfunction found in diabetes.
|
48 |
16309849
|
This in turn triggers a kinase cascade which activates both IkappaB kinase-beta (IKK-beta) and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), each of which can phosphorylate a key serine residue in IRS-1, rendering it a poor substrate for the activated insulin receptor.
|
49 |
16309849
|
Heat shock proteins Hsp27 and Hsp72 have the potential to prevent the activation of IKK-beta and JNK, respectively; this suggests that induction of heat shock proteins may blunt the adverse impact of fat overexposure on insulin function.

16282336
|
The effect of EPA on ERK1/2, c-jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK), p38 or phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) activity in MMCs was examined using Western blot.
|
51 |
16282336
|
EPA and specific inhibitors of ERK1/2, JNK and PI3K decreased levels of MCP-1 in MMCs.

|
At an early intracellular level, angiotensin II, acting through JAK-2/IRS-1/PI3-kinase, JNK and ERK, may induce the serine phosphorylation and inhibition of key elements of the insulin-signaling pathway.
|
53 |
16506055
|
It is also reduced in Zucker fa/fa rats, which present an impaired ability of insulin to induce Akt, ERK-1/2 and JNK-1/2 phosphorylation.
|
54 |
16528573
|
IL-1beta activates beta cell c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and p38, all of which are members of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family.
|
55 |
16528573
|
The effects of Gadd45b expression on signalling by JNK, ERK and p38 were assessed by Western blotting and kinase assays.
|
56 |
16528573
|
In INS-1E and beta-TC3 cells, expression of Gadd45b inhibited IL-1beta-induced activation of JNK and ERK, but augmented IL-1beta-mediated p38 activity.
|
57 |
16528573
|
Inadequate induction of Gadd45b, which encodes a novel beta cell JNK and ERK inhibitor, may in part explain the pro-apoptotic response of beta cells to IL-1beta.
|
58 |
16600178
|
Over-expression of gal-3 protected beta-cells against IL-1beta toxicity, with a complete blockage of JNK phosphorylation, essential for IL-1-mediated apoptosis.
|
59 |
16622294
|
A novel approach to reverse insulin resistance involves inhibition of the stress-activated protein kinase Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) and the protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs).
|
60 |
16868181
|
We have demonstrated, in rats with streptozotocin-induced diabetes, that mechanical hyperalgesia, a common symptom of diabetic neuropathy, was correlated with an early increase in extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase (ERK), p38, and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) phosphorylation in the spinal cord and dorsal root ganglion at 3 weeks after induction of diabetes.
|
61 |
17003331
|
In contrast, insulin-stimulated extracellular signal-regulated kinase1/2 and Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK) activation were decreased in the presence of bradykinin, accompanied by decreased IRS-1 Ser307 phosphorylation.
|
62 |
17003331
|
Furthermore, bradykinin did not enhance insulin action in the presence of the JNK inhibitor, SP-600125, or in adipocytes from JNK1-/- mice.
|
63 |
17084707
|
ATM seemingly does this by inhibiting JNK, a stress kinase involved in inflammation with related effects in insulin resistance and atherosclerosis.
|
64 |
17084707
|
In an interesting twist, the authors show that chloroquine, an antimalarial drug, also activates ATM, which inhibits JNK, and improves insulin sensitivity and cardiovascular effects.
|
65 |
16854579
|
We propose that in the liver, the mitogen-activated protein kinase, c-jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), links excessive nutrient metabolism with impaired insulin regulation of glucose production.
|
66 |
17124365
|
The c-Jun NH2-terminal kinases (JNKs) are classic stress-activated protein kinases and many cellular stresses have been shown to stimulate JNK activation.
|
67 |
17416798
|
Activation of c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK) inhibits insulin signaling in cultured cells and in vivo and thereby promotes insulin resistance.
|
68 |
17550900
|
We applied RNA interference to investigate the specific role of hepatic JNK1 in contributing to insulin resistance in DIO mice.
|
69 |
17550900
|
At the molecular level, JNK1 knockdown mice had sustained and significant increase of hepatic Akt phosphorylation.
|
70 |
17664271
|
TNFalpha also led to activation of JNK with increased expression of the proinflammatory gene, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 and matrix metalloproteinase 3, and beta-arrestin-1 knockdown inhibited both of these effects.
|
71 |
18082135
|
In vitro studies have implicated the c-Jun amino terminal kinase (JNK) in cytokine-induced pancreatic injury leading to a loss of insulin production and hyperglycemia.
|
72 |
18296638
|
Overexpression of MKP-4 in 3T3-L1 cells inhibited ERK and JNK phosphorylation and, to a lesser extent, p38MAPK phosphorylation.
|
73 |
18296638
|
Overexpression of MKP-4 in the liver of ob/ob mice decreased ERK and JNK phosphorylation, leading to a reduction in fed and fasted glycemia, improved glucose intolerance, decreased expression of gluconeogenic and lipogenic genes, and reduced hepatic steatosis.
|
74 |
18296638
|
Thus, MKP-4 has a protective effect against the development of insulin resistance through its ability to dephosphorylate and inactivate crucial mediators of stress-induced insulin resistance, such as ERK and JNK, and increasing MKP-4 activity might provide a therapy for insulin-resistant disorders.
|
75 |
18252896
|
The pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin-1 beta (IL-1 beta) generates pancreatic beta-cells apoptosis mainly through activation of the c-Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway.
|
76 |
18252896
|
The data establish the requirement of IB1 in the protective action of ex-4 against apoptosis elicited by IL-1 beta and highlight the GLP-1 mimetics as new potent inhibitors of the JNK signaling induced by cytokines.
|
77 |
18278435
|
These effects did not involve changes in nitric oxide production but correlated with stimulation of c-jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) activity and activation of caspases-1, -3, -8 and -9.
|
78 |
18278435
|
Our results suggest that the imidazoline RX871024 causes death of highly proliferating insulin-secreting cells, putatively via augmentation of JNK activity, a finding that may impact on the possibility of using compounds of similar activity in the treatment of diabetes.
|
79 |
18551686
|
JNK phosphorylation was reduced by 126.7% with treatment of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (p < 0.001). 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D had no effect on FFA-induced ERK phosphorylation (p = 0.84). 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D improved the FFA-induced insulin resistance in muscle cells.
|
80 |
18567819
|
As JNK can inhibit insulin action and activate proinflammatory pathways, ER stress activation of JNK may be a link between obesity, insulin resistance, and inflammation.
|
81 |
18593820
|
These data demonstrate that TNF-alpha inhibits GSIS by reducing the glucose-stimulated Ca(2)(+) influx, possibly through the activation of JNK and p38 MAPK and NF-kappaB inflammatory signals.

18792873
|
AGE induced Rac-1 activation and increased phosphorylation of IRS-1 at serine-307 residues, JNK, c-JUN, and IkappaB kinase in association with decreased IkappaB levels in Hep3B cells.
|
83 |
18792873
|
Our present study suggests that PEDF could improve the AGE-elicited insulin resistance in Hep3B cells by inhibiting JNK- and IkappaB kinase-dependent serine phosphorylation of IRS-1 via suppression of Rac-1 activation.

84 |
18818414
|

19108709
|
Insulin-induced increases in c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase-1 (JNK1) activity were partially inhibited by m7E3 and eptifibatide whereas antagonism of alphavbeta3 integrins had no effect on insulin-induced increases in extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) activity.
|
87 |
19066313
|
Specifically, glucose-regulated protein 78 (Grp78) and spliced X-box binding protein-1 (sXBP-1) mRNA levels were reduced, as were phosphorylated elongation initiation factor 2alpha (eIF2alpha) and stress kinase c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase 1 (JNK1) (all P values <0.05).
|
88 |
19073766
|
Heat treatment resulted in decreased activation of Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK) and inhibitor of kappaB kinase (IKK-beta), stress kinases implicated in insulin resistance, and upregulation of HSP72 and HSP25, proteins previously shown to inhibit JNK and IKK-beta activation, respectively.
|
89 |
19208858
|
Furthermore, inhibitors of insulin signaling including soleus muscle glycogen synthase kinase-3 and JNK were reduced, while the insulin-sensitizing adipokine, adiponectin, alongside AMPK were increased.

90 |
19390610
|
While this interaction constitutes an adaptive response that allows managing energy resources under stress conditions, excessive JNK activity in adipose tissue of vertebrates has been found to cause insulin resistance, promoting type II diabetes.
|
91 |
19390610
|
We show that JNK signaling is required for metabolic homeostasis in flies and that this function is mediated by the Drosophila Lipocalin family member Neural Lazarillo (NLaz), a homologue of vertebrate Apolipoprotein D (ApoD) and Retinol Binding Protein 4 (RBP4).
|
92 |
19243309
|
Its partner, JIP1 (JNK-interacting protein 1), serves a scaffolding function that facilitates JNK1 activation by MKK4 [MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinase) kinase 4] and MKK7 (MAPK kinase 7).
|
93 |
19243309

95 |
19696094
|
There was no difference in hepatic microsomal production of acrolein from CY or urinary hydroxypropyl mercapturic acid output between WT and GSTP-null mice, but CY induced greater c-Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase (JNK) and c-Jun, but not extracellular signal-regulated kinase or p38, activation in GSTP-null than in WT mice.

96 |
19713213
|
Inhibition of the p38 or JNK pathways with pharmacological inhibitors or dominant negative constructs blocked 12S-hydroxyeicosatetranoic acid-mediated degradation of ABCG1.
|
97 |
19713213
|
JNK2- and MKK3-, but not JNK1-deficient macrophages were resistant to the down-regulation of ABCG1 protein, reduction in efflux, and increase in serine phosphorylation by 12S-hydroxyeicosatetranoic acid.
|
98 |
19748889
|
Importantly, we discovered that GIP suppressed p38 MAPK and JNK via Akt-mediated changes in the phosphorylation state of the apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1 in INS-1 cells and human islets, resulting in inhibition of its activity.
|
99 |
19683471
|
Kinases, including IKKbeta, JNK, ERK, mTOR, and S6K, activated by the inducers of insulin resistance induce uncontrolled IRS serine phosphorylation.

|
After 14 days of drug administration, there was a marked improvement in glucose tolerance; a reduction in insulin resistance; a reduction in macrophage infiltration in adipose tissue and in TNF-alpha, IL-6, and free fatty acids; accompanied by an improvement in insulin signaling in liver, muscle, and adipose tissue; and also a decrease in insulin receptor substrate-1 Ser(307) phosphorylation in JNK and inhibitor of NF-kappaB kinase (IKKbeta) activation in these tissues.

We found that PGE(2) time-dependently increased the c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway activity.
|
102 |
19837872
|
JNK inhibition by the JNK-specific inhibitor SP600125 reversed PGE(2)-inhibited glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS).
|
103 |
19837872
|
PGE(2)-mediated JNK1 activation, through dephosphorylation of Akt and FOXO1, leads to nuclear accumulation of FOXO1 and nucleocytoplasmic shuttling of PDX1, finally resulting in defective GSIS in pancreatic beta-cells.
|
104 |
19952270
|
Palmitate treatment induced ER stress through a c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK)-dependent pathway because a selective JNK inhibitor blocked palmitate activation of the ER stress pathways eIF2 alpha and X-box binding protein-1.
|
105 |
19952270
|
Interestingly, JNK inhibition did not prevent the palmitate-mediated cleaved caspase-3 increase, an apoptotic marker, or insulin signaling attenuation.
|
106 |
19952270
|
However, pretreatment with the AMP kinase activator, aminoimidazole carboxamide ribonucleotide, blocked JNK phosphorylation and importantly prevented caspase-3 cleavage and restored insulin signaling during short-term exposure to palmitate.

19959167
|
These effects could be significantly attenuated by anti-RAGE neutralizing antibody, p38, ERK1/2 and JNK MAPK inhibitors as well as by candesartan.

108 |
20022934
|
In this study, we show that central inhibition of JNK activity potentiates the stimulatory effects of glucocorticoids on food intake and that this effect is abolished in mice whose agouti-related peptide (AgRP) neurons are degenerated.
|
109 |
20022934
|
JNK1-deficient mice feed more upon central administration of glucocorticoids, and glucocorticoid receptor nuclear immunoreactivity is enhanced in the AgRP neurons.
|
110 |
20022934
|
Our study shows that JNK1 is a novel regulator of feeding by antagonizing glucocorticoid function in AgRP neurons.
|
111 |
20022934
|
Paradoxically, JNK1 mutant mice feed less and lose more weight upon central administration of insulin, suggesting that JNK1 antagonizes insulin function in the brain.

Chronic oxidative stress resulted in increased levels of phosphorylated (activated) JNK in the cytoplasm, whereas acute oxidative stress led to redistribution of JNK-specific phosphatase MKP7 from the nucleus into the cytoplasm, reduction in cytoplasmic phospho-JNK, and a concurrent accumulation of phospho-JNK in the nucleus.
|
117 |
20430894
|
We propose that the contrasting effects of acute and chronic stress on insulin sensitivity are driven by changes in subcellular distribution of MKP7 and activated JNK.

122 |
20459875
|
This associated with the upregulation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family enzymes p38 and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) activation, as well as with the protection of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK1/2) and MAPK/ERK kinase (MEK1/2) activity loss induced by H2O2.

|
Activation of c-jun NH?-terminal kinase (JNK) was attenuated, and insulin signaling was improved in the liver of HFD mice.

124 |
19776174
|
Moreover, knocking down of MKP5 expression in old control mesangial cells resulted in JNK activation and MCP-1 production, a phenotype seen in aging diabetic mesangial cells.
|
125 |
19776174
|
Thus, OS may induce inflammation in mesangial cells by activating JNK through either a direct activation of JNK or indirectly by suppression of MKP5 activity.
|
126 |
20094041
|
Although silencing Jnk1 and/or Jnk2 prevented PA-induced inhibition of insulin signaling, it did not completely block decreased insulin-mediated glycogenesis, thus indicating JNK-independent pathways in the suppression of glycogenesis by PA.
|
127 |
20094041
|
Muscle-specific inhibition of JNK2 (or total JNK) improves the capacity of NEFA utilization and glycogenesis, and is a potential therapeutic target for improving systemic insulin sensitivity in type 2 diabetes (T2D).

In the present study, we found MyD88-deficient mice fed a HFD had increased circulating levels of insulin, leptin and cholesterol, as well as liver dysfunction (increased induction of ALT levels, increased activation of JNK and cleavage of PARP), which were linked to the onset of severe diabetes.
|
131 |
20655383
|
The activity of JNK was reduced in the hippocampus of rosiglitazone-treated OLETF rats, correlating with a reduction in tau phosphorylation, however, which was not correlated with GSK3? activity.
|
132 |
20655383
|
In human tau-transfected SH-SY5Y neuronal cell line, reduction of tau phosphorylation was also associated with reduction of JNK activity, not of GSK3? activity.

133 |
20693579
|
Additionally, attempts to elucidate a possible mechanism underlying the UVA-mediated effects revealed that UVA induced migration inhibitory factor (MIF) gene expression, and this was mediated through activation of AP-1 (especially JNK and p42/44 MAPK) and nuclear factor-?B.

|
Furthermore, JNK phosphorylation was attenuated by inhibition of endogenous MIF. 4.
|
138 |
20686488
|
Furthermore, the H?O?-induced upregulation of angiotensinogen was inhibited by a mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) kinase (MEK) inhibitor and a c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) inhibitor, but not inhibited by a p38 MAPK inhibitor.
|
139 |
20686488
|
These data suggest that the majority of angiotensinogen was induced in mesangial cells in glomeruli under pathological conditions such as diabetic nephropathy, and angiotensinogen expression in mesangial cells was mediated by H?O? and the subsequent activation of extracellular-regulated kinase (ERK)/JNK pathways.
|
140 |
20797423
|
Chromatin immunoprecipitation assays demonstrate that C/EBP? is recruited to the PEPCK promoter during ER stress and is reversed by pre-treatment with a JNK inhibitor that relieves ER stress.

143 |
20855122
|

|
145 |
20888782
|
These findings, together with evidence for the involvement of JNK signaling in other manifestations of the metabolic syndrome such as obesity and insulin resistance, have suggested that JNK could be a novel therapeutic target in this disorder.

In TSC2-deficient mouse embryonic fibroblasts, in which mTORC1 is constitutively active, mTORC1 regulated the stimulation of JNK by ER stressors, but not in response to anisomycin, which activates JNK independent of ER stress.
|
147 |
19305497
|
Collectively, our findings suggest that mTORC1 mediates glucose amplification of lipotoxicity, acting through activation of ER stress and JNK.
|
148 |
19305497
|
Moreover, in stressed beta-cells mTORC1 inhibition decreases IRE1alpha protein expression and JNK activity without affecting ER protein load, suggesting that mTORC1 regulates the beta-cell stress response to glucose and fatty acids by modulating the synthesis and activity of specific proteins involved in the execution of the ER stress response.
|
149 |
21073655
|
Furthermore, high glucose concentrations led to apoptosis of ?-cells by activation of p38MAPK and p53, and dysfunction of ?-cells through phosphatase and tensih homolog (PTEN)-dependent Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) activation and protein kinase B (AKT/PKB) inhibition, which induced the translocation of forkhead box O1 and pancreatic duodenal homeobox-1, followed by reduced insulin expression and secretion.

|
Our results show that palmitate and oleate (0.5 mmol/L, 48 h) induced JNK activation and AKT inhibition which resulted in decreased phosphorylation of FOXO1 following nuclear localization and the nucleocytoplasmic translocation of PDX-1, leading to the reducing of insulin and ultimately dysfunction of pancreatic NIT-1 cells.

Increasing fatty acid concentrations (100-400 micromol/l palmitate or oleate) led to early Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase (JNK) activation that preceded induction of ER stress markers and apoptosis.
|
161 |
18174526
|
Fatty acids induced nuclear localization of Foxo1 at 4 h when Akt activity was increased, indicating that FoxO1 activation was not mediated by JNK inhibition of Akt.

|
169 |
21282367
|
However, both acute and chronic exercise blunted TLR4 signaling in these tissues, including a reduction in JNK and IKK? phosphorylation and IRS-1 serine 307 phosphorylation, and, in parallel, improved insulin-induced IR, IRS-1 tyrosine phosphorylation, and Akt serine phosphorylation, and reduced LPS serum levels.

|
175 |
19605645
|
These data indicate JNK mediates Abeta oligomer inactivation of IRS-1 and phospho-tau pathology and that dietary treatment with fish oil/DHA, curcumin, or a combination of both has the potential to improve insulin/trophic signaling and cognitive deficits in AD.
|
176 |
21309063
|
Except for plasma adiponectin (~7 to ~15, oral hypoglycaemic agents versus ~6 to ~10, IT), changes in inflammatory markers in the circulation and in muscle (I?B?, super-oxidase dismutase 2, monocyte-chemo-attractant protein 1, p-ERK and JNK) were equivalent.
