p38α: A Suppressor of Cell Proliferation and Tumorigenesis
Open accessAbstract
The mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) p38alpha is involved in numerous biological processes and is a drug target for inflammation-associated diseases. Genetic analysis in mice demonstrated that fetuses lacking p38alpha are embryonic lethal owing to impaired placental development. The function of p38alpha in mice after birth remained unclear until conditional alleles of p38alpha were used. It was found that p38alpha is essential for lung function in both neonatal and adult mice. Increased proliferation and impaired differentiation are the hallmarks of p38alpha-deficient cells. Moreover, mice deficient in p38alpha are prone to cancer development using carcinogen or oncogene-induced cancer models. p38alpha can suppress cell proliferation by antagonizing the JNK/c-Jun pathway, which is an important regulator of proliferation and apoptosis. These findings suggest that therapeutic inhibition of p38 might lead to unwanted proliferation. Therefore, a combined inhibition of p38 and other pathways, such as the JNK pathway, should be considered for targeting cancer inflammation.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
