15654655 Sabbieti MG, Marchetti L, Gabrielli MG, Menghi M, Materazzi S, Menghi G, Raisz LG, Hurley MM: Prostaglandins differently regulate FGF-2 and FGF receptor expression and induce nuclear translocation in osteoblasts via MAPK kinase. Cell Tissue Res. 2005 Feb;319(2):267-78. Epub 2004 Dec 10.

In addition, cells treated with PGF (2alpha) exhibit increased nuclear labelling for the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), p44/ERK2.
Pre-treatment with cycloheximide blocks nuclear labelling for FGF-2 in response to PGF (2alpha).

We now explore DUSP roles using short inhibitory RNA to knock down endogenous ERK, adenoviruses to express GnRH receptors and add-back ERK2-GFP, and automated microscopy to monitor ERK location and activation.
Cycloheximide caused more sustained effects of GnRH and phorbol ester on ppERK, suggesting termination by nuclear-inducible DUSPs.

This family of MAPKs includes ERK, and ERK2.
We found that low dose H2O2 induced increased FAK production in pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells, which could be blocked by cycloheximide (CHX), a protein synthesis inhibitor.

Expression of mRNA from dr6 was inhibited by cycloheximide and partly by phosphonoacetic acid, a known characteristic of herpesvirus early/late genes.

Immunoblotting analysis using anti-ERK2 and anti-phospho-MAPK antibodies revealed a 44 kDa MAP kinase species that was constantly expressed in U. unicinctus eggs, quickly phosphorylated after fertilization, and dephosphorylated slowly before the completion of meiosis I.
Phosphorylation of the protein was not depressed by protein synthesis inhibitor Cycloheximide (CHX), but was depressed by the MEK1 inhibitor PD98059.

The increase in IRS-1/IRS-2 levels induced by nicotine was prevented by nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) antagonists, the Ca (2+) chelator 1,2-bis (2-aminophenoxy)-ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetra-acetic acid tetrakis-acetoxymethyl ester, cycloheximide or actinomycin D.
Nicotine phosphorylated cPKC-alpha, thereby increasing phosphorylation of ERK1/ERK2, as demonstrated by using Go6976, PD98059 or U0126.

Inhibition of protein synthesis by cycloheximide blocked curcumin-induced vacuolation and subsequent cell death, indicating that protein synthesis is required for this process.
ERK2 and JNK activation were positively associated with curcumin-induced cell death.

Furthermore, IL-6 increased p44/42 MAPKs phosphorylation and p44 and p42 MAPK-specific siRNA mixture blocked IL-6-induced increase of 2-DG uptake and GLUT-2 protein expression.
Indeed, IL-6 increased GLUT-2 mRNA and protein expression as well as 2-DG uptake, which were blocked by actinomycin D (AD, transcription inhibitor) and cycloheximide (CHX, translation inhibitor).

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.

Pretreatment with cycloheximide did not prevent the CTGF induction by SPC, indicating that SPC stimulates CTGF mRNA expression without the increased synthesis of a regulatory protein.

In this study, we report that treatment of Fas-resistant melanoma cell lines with cycloheximide, a general inhibitor of de novo protein synthesis, sensitizes them to anti-Fas monoclonal antibody (mAb)-induced apoptosis.

On the contrary, Atg5-/- MEFs were as sensitive to tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha and cycloheximide as WT cells, and were more sensitive to cell death triggered by amino acid-deprivation than WT MEFs.
