We conclude that regulation of bumetanide-sensitive cotransporter type 1 by norepinephrine proceeds via the beta-adrenoceptor receptor-cAMP-protein kinase A pathway that involves in part mitogen-activated protein kinases and that alpha-adrenoceptor activation negatively regulates bumetanide-sensitive cotransporter type 1 protein levels.
Treatment with norepinephrine, either alone or in the presence of actinomycin D or cycloheximide, had no effect on cotransporter mRNA levels.

Hypertension. 2005 Oct;46(4):1046-52. Epub 2005 Aug 8.

Aldosterone-mediated phenomena were concluded to be attributable to a nongenomic effect because cycloheximide failed to inhibit aldosterone-induced BMK1 activation.
Aldosterone-induced nongenomic effects are attributable in part to the activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2), a classical mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase.

Using StAR promoter-reporter gene activity and pharmacological inhibition of signaling pathways, we have shown that Ang II-stimulated StAR transcription in H295R cells is dependent upon both influx of external Ca2+ and tyrosine kinase signaling and is enhanced by protein kinase C and mitogen-activated protein kinase (ERK1/2) activation.
The Ang II-dependent, but not (Bu) 2cAMP-dependent, induction of StAR mRNA was also blocked by AG490 and shown to be sensitive to cycloheximide treatment.

Receptor-overexpressing cells were protected against peroxide-induced necrosis and tumor necrosis factor-alpha/cycloheximide-induced apoptosis.
Overexpression of the receptor resulted in a significantly higher baseline expression of both total and phosphorylated heat-shock protein (HSP) 27; the latter due to A1 receptor enhancement of p38 and AP2 mitogen-activated protein kinase activities.

These effects were prevented by cycloheximide and actinomycin D but not by a caspase-3 inhibitor.
In addition, inhibition of extracelluar signal-regulated kinase (ERK), Src tyrosine kinase and protein kinase C prevented both neuronal injury in the cortex and shrinkage of the striatum, whereas inhibition of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase and c-Jun N-terminal kinase prevented shrinkage of the striatum only.

The present study was designed to test if lipid soluble smoking particles (DSP) enhance TxA (2) receptor (TP) expression in rat mesenteric arteries, and if intracellular mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways play a role.
This up-regulation was not affected by a general transcriptional inhibitor actinomycin D, but was almost completely abolished by cycloheximide, a general translational inhibitor.

Canonically, IFN-beta signals through activation of JAK/STAT pathway, although PI3K and MAPK have also been involved.
The use of cycloheximide and actinomycin D shows that sIL-1Ra was an immediate early gene induced by IFN-beta and that PI3K was controlling sIL-1Ra gene transcription.

Pretreatment of cells with cycloheximide (an inhibitor of protein synthesis) resulted in significant inhibition of H _2 O _2 -induced c-gelsolin expression, suggesting the possible de novo synthesis of c-gelsolin in cells.
However, both H _2 O _2 and staurosporine activated the mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs), i.e., c-Jun N-terminal kinase, P38, and extracellular signal-regulated kinase.

Br J Haematol. 2008 Jan;140(1):59-70. Epub 2007 Nov 12.

Moreover, PLB-985 cells lost surface expression of IL-13Ralpha1 during differentiation, resulting in PLB-985D cells expressing only IL-4Ralpha fully responsive to IL-4, as judged by activation of mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases and Janus kinase 1.
Utilization of catalase, cycloheximide and genistein inhibitors showed that IL-4 induced SOCS3 by a mechanism dependent on a complete NADPH oxidase complex, protein synthesis and tyrosine phosphorylation, but independent of production of reactive oxygen species.

Cell viability assays indicated that the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) inhibitors SB202190 and SB203580 and the general protein synthesis inhibitor cycloheximide inhibited both the LPS and TNF-alpha sensitization of HUVEC to Stx2, while all other inhibitors tested did not inhibit this sensitization.
In conclusion, our results show that LPS and TNF-alpha induction of Stx2 sensitivity in HUVEC is mediated through a pathway that includes p38 MAPK.

Since it was blocked by the translation inhibitor cycloheximide, we examined whether sustained exposure to glibenclamide activates translational factors by calcium-dependent signalling pathways.
This activation of translational factors and the associated elevation of insulin synthesis were completely blocked by the calcium channel blocker verapamil and partially blocked by the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitor rapamycin, the protein kinase A (PKA) inhibitor Rp-8-Br-cAMPs and the mitogen-activated protein kinase/ extracellular signal-regulated kinase kinase (MEK) inhibitor U0126; a combination of inhibitors exhibited additive effects.

These data demonstrate that IGF-I downregulates Rstn gene expression via IGF-IR-dependent and MEK1-, p38 MAPK-, and phosphoinositide 3-kinase-independent pathways and likely modifies the distribution of Rstn protein between the intracellular and extracellular compartments via a p38 MAPK-dependent pathway.
Treatment with cycloheximide, but not with actinomycin D, prevented IGF-I-suppressed Rstn mRNA expression, suggesting that IGF-I destabilizes Rstn mRNA and that IGF-I's effect requires new protein, but not mRNA, synthesis.

The expression mRNAs for VEGF, c-jun and c-fos induced by Npe6-mediated PDT were inhibited by SB203580, p38 MAPK inhibitors, and the expression of VEGF mRNA was inhibited by cycloheximide (CHX), a protein synthesis inhibitor.
We conclude that Npe6-mediated PDT induces the expression of VEGF, c-jun and c-fos in human oral carcinoma cell line, HSC-3 cell, and at least partly, through the activation of p38 MAPK.

16787641 Ito Y, Oh-Hashi K, Kiuchi K, Hirata Y: p44/42 MAP kinase and c-Jun N-terminal kinase contribute to the up-regulation of caspase-3 in manganese-induced apoptosis in PC12 cells. Brain Res. 2006 Jul 12;1099(1):1-7. Epub 2006 Jun 19.

Up-regulation of caspase-3 protein was evident in manganese-treated PC12 cells and was moderate in cisplatin-, rotenone- and A23187-treated cells but was not observed in serum deprivation-, anisomycin-, camptothecin-, cycloheximide- or staurosporine-treated cells in which all treatments induced extensive DNA fragmentation.
These results suggest that p44/42 MAPK contributes to the up-regulation of caspase-3 mRNA and the JNK pathway regulates caspase-3 protein levels posttranslationally in manganese-induced apoptosis in PC12 cells.
