Finally, extracellular signal regulated kinase 1 and 2 (ERK1/2) was shown to play a key role in the regulation of protein expression of PPARalpha and PPARgamma.

Loss of ACE2 also leads to increased neutrophilic infiltration in the infarct and peri-infarct regions, resulting in upregulation of inflammatory cytokines, interferon-gamma, interleukin-6, and the chemokine, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, as well as increased phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and JNK1/2 signaling pathways.

Arthritis Res Ther. 2008;10(2):R43. Epub 2008 Apr 16.

Cannabinoid receptor stimulation of fibroblast-like cells from OA and RA patients produced a time-dependent phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK)-1 and ERK-2 which was significantly blocked by the CB1 antagonist SR141716A.
FAAH was active in the synovia of OA and RA patients and was sensitive to inhibition by URB597 (3'-(aminocarbonyl) [1,1'-biphenyl]-3-yl)-cyclohexylcarbamate).

Exp Biol Med. 2008 Oct;233(10):1280-8. Epub 2008 Jul 18.


Taken together, we concluded that magnolol inhibits apoptosis through enhancing the activation of ERK1/2 and modulation of the Bcl-xl proteins which brings about reduction of infarct size and improvement of cardiac function in I/R-induced injury.

In this study we report on the specificity profiling of the MAP kinase inhibitors 1, 2, and 3 in a panel of 78 protein kinases including the MAPK isoforms p38 (alpha,beta,gamma,delta), JNK1/2/3, and ERK1/2/8 showing 3-(4-fluorophenyl)-4-pyridin-4-ylquinolin-2 (1H)-one (1) to be highly selective for p38alphaMAPK with an IC (50) of 1.8 microM.
