MAPK Pathway Assay (CAT#: STEM-MB-0339-WXH)

Introduction

Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signal transduction system, as a classical cell signal transduction pathway, is an important way to regulate the cell cycle. The activation of MAPK is a phosphorylation cascade reaction initiated by various signal molecules. Signal transduction plays an important role in the occurrence and development of gastric cancer.
MAPKs are a class of highly conserved oncogene products, belonging to a large family of serine/threonine kinases, which constitute the main cell proliferation signal from the cell membrane to the nucleus, and are closely related to cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis.




Principle

MAPK is composed of extracellu larsignal regulated kinases (ERK MAPKs, Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK), C-Jun-N terminal kinases/stress activated protein kinases (thee-Jun Nterminal kinases/stress activated protein kinases, JNK MAPKs/SAPMAPKs3 and p38MAPK consist of three main sub-families. It is currently known that these cascades can change the expression of tumor-related genes. The ERKMAPK pathway is the most important signal transduction pathway for cell proliferation.
MAPK signal transduction pathway is an important signal system that mediates cellular responses. The MAPK cascade is very complex. These pathways can be activated by different extracellular signals, and then specific extracellular stimulation signals induce protein kinase tyrosine phosphate. The conversion is converted to protein kinase serine/threonine phosphorylation, which allows the signal to be transduced downstream. Therefore it is located at the convergence point of many cytokine signal transduction pathways.
