Moreover, extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) was found to be a downstream target of molluscan PKC, operating via a MAPK/ERK kinase (MEK)-dependent mechanism.

Here we examined the role of the inositol triphosphate (IP3) and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signalling cascades in this nongenomic pathway.

Int J Cancer. 2002 Dec 1;102(4):343-50.


We previously reported that ALPs, when added at micromolar concentrations (5-25 microM), inhibit growth factor-induced MAPK/ERK activation and enhance radiation-induced apoptosis.

Together, these data describe an alternative ERK1/2 signaling pathway in which the DOR transactivates the growth factor receptor associated mitogen-activated protein kinase cascade in an integrin-dependent manner.

The intracellular calcium chelator EGTA-acetoxymethylester reduced 5-LOX activity and apoptosis to 30-40% of controls, whereas the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase inhibitor SB203580 was ineffective.
