The activation and function of c-Jun N-terminal kinases (JNKs) were investigated in primary microglia cultures from neonatal rat brain, which express all three JNK isoforms. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), tumor necrosis factor-a (TNF-a), and thrombin preparations induced a rapid and lasting activation of

Partial hepatectomy leads to an orchestrated regenerative response, activating a cascade of cell signaling events necessary for cell cycle progression and proliferation of hepatocytes. However, the identity of the humoral factors that trigger the activation of these pathways in the concerted regener
## Abstract The cβJun Nβterminal kinases (JNKs) are members of the mitogenβactivated protein kinase (MAPK) family. In mammalian genomes, three genes encode the JNK family. To evaluate JNK function, mice have been created with deletions in one or more of three __Jnk__ genes. Initial studies on __jnk
## Abstract There is growing evidence that the molecular pathways of programmed cell death play a role in neurodegenerative disease, including Parkinson's disease, so there has been increased interest in them as therapeutic targets for the development of neuroprotective strategies. One pathway of c
## Abstract To explore the potential mechanisms of tendon degeneration, we investigated the role of cβJun Nβterminal Kinase (JNK) activation and the regulation of matrix metalloproteinase 1 (MMP1) in tendon matrix degradation under oxidative stress. JNK and MMP1 activity in samples from normal and
