Phosphorylation and activation of extracellular signal-regulated proteins (ERK1/2) were detected in sodium arsenite-treated COLO205 and HT29 cells, and the free radical scavenger N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) was able to inhibit this ERK1/2 activation and HSP70 gene expression.

The pro-angiogenesis effect of either sodium arsenite at 33 nM or b-FGF was blocked (P < 0.01) by the extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1 and 2 (ERK1/2) activation inhibitor, PD 98059.

Viability was assessed in H4IIE cells treated with sodium arsenite, mercuric chloride, sodium selenite, lead acetate, chromium trioxide or manganese chloride.

Activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAP kinase) pathways in cultured porcine aortic vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) was determined following a 5-min stimulation with endothelin-1 (ET-1), phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), H2O2, or sodium arsenite.
Extracellular signal-related kinase (ERK1/2), p38, and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK1/2) MAP kinase activation was assessed using anti-phospho-MAPK kinase antibodies.

We have previously shown that in HeLa cells a protein kinase (HS-CTD kinase) activity is induced rapidly after a heat or sodium arsenite shock.
Mono Q chromatography allows the separation of five stress-induced CTD kinase activities, two of which coelute with active mitogen-activated protein kinase forms revealed by Western blotting with anti ERK1-ERK2 antibodies.

Oral administration of taurine (at a dose of 100mg/kg body weight for 5 days) was found to be effective in counteracting As-induced oxidative stress, attenuation of testicular damages and amelioration of apoptosis in testicular tissue by controlling the reciprocal regulation of Bcl-2/Bad, phospho-ERK1/2, phospho-p38, phospho-Akt and NF-kappaB.

In addition, arsenite was shown to induce phosphorylation of extracellular signal regulated kinase (ERK) 1/2 at concentrations of 1 microM and above.
These mesencephalic cells were treated with low concentrations of sodium arsenite (0.1, 0.5, 1, 5, and 10 microM) and incubated for different periods of time (0-4 h).

MAPK-activated protein kinase-2 (MAPKAP kinase-2) is activated in vitro by the p42 and p44 isoforms of MAPK (p42/p44MAPK).
In several cell lines, however, MAPKAP kinase-2 is activated by sodium arsenite, heat shock, or osmotic stress and not by agonists that activate p42/p44MAPK.
