Growth factors activate ATF2 via sequential phosphorylation of Thr69 and Thr71, where the ATF2-Thr71-phosphorylation precedes the induction of ATF2-Thr69+71-phosphorylation. Here, we studied the mechanisms contributing to serum-induced two-step ATF2-phosphorylation in JNK1,2-deficient embryonic fibroblasts. Using anion exchange chromatography, ERK1/2 and p38 were identified as ATF2-kinases in vitro. Inhibitor studies as well as nuclear localization experiments show that the sequential nuclear appearance of ERK1/2 and p38 determines the induction of ATF2-Thr71 and ATF2-Thr69+71-phosphorylation in response to serum.

Objectives: Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) osteoarthritis (OA) is an inflammatory disease that involves periarthritis of the TMJ and destruction of cartilage tissue in the mandibular condyle. However, the role of proinflammatory cytokines in the expression levels of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) remains inconclusive. Thus, in this study, we aimed to investigate the effect of proinflammatory cytokines on the expression of MMPs.

Background: Clostridium butyricum is a probiotic widely used in animal husbandry, and there is evidence to suggest that it can alleviate intestinal inflammation in pigs and may be related to its lipoteichoic acid (LTA), but the mechanism is still unclear.
Objective: This study aimed to determine the regulatory effect and potential mechanism of C. butyricum LTA on LPS-stimulated inflammation in intestinal porcine epithelial line-J2 (IPEC-J2).

Osteoporosis (OP) is a significant global public health concern that requires the development of safe and effective drugs for prevention and treatment. Sugemule-7 (SGML-7) decoction, a traditional Mongolian herbal prescription, has long been used for treating OP, but its components and mechanisms of action remain unclear. The study identified the main compounds of SGML-7 using UHPLC-Q Exactive MS and explored the multi-target mechanisms of SGML-7 in OP through network pharmacology and molecular docking.

NADPH oxidase 1 (Nox1) is a major isoform of Nox in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). VSMC activation and extracellular matrix (ECM) remodelling induce abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). In this study, we aim to determine the role of Nox1 in the progression of AAA and explore the underling mechanism.
