General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction inhibition of ERK MAPK activity increased E-cadherin expression at both the transcriptional and protein level. Knockdown of EKR1/2 expression by siRNA in A-549 cells produces a similar up-regulation of E-cadherin. Inhibition of p38 and ERK1/2 activities but not JNK and PI3K abrogates DU145 cells survival advantage Homo sapiens
malfunction inhibition of p38 MAPK activity increased E-cadherin expression at both the transcriptional and protein level. Knockdown of p38alpha expression by siRNA in A-549 cells produces a similar upregulation of E-cadherin. Inhibition of p38 and ERK1/2 activities but not JNK and PI3K abrogates DU145 cells survival advantage Homo sapiens
metabolism hepatocyte coculture induces the re-expression of E-cadherin via abrogation of autocrine EGFR signaling pathway in prostate cancer (PCa) cells and this confers a survival advantage. Hepatocytes educate PCa cells to undergo mesenchymal to epithelial reverting transition (MErT) by modulating the activity of p38 and ERK1/2. Hepatocytes inhibit p38 and ERK1/2 activity in prostate cancer cells, which allows E-cadherin re-expression. Introduction of constitutively active MEK6 and MEK1 to DU-145 cells cocultured with hepatocytes abrogates E-cadherin re-expression. At least a partial phenotypic reversion can be achieved by suppression of p38 and ERK1/2 activation in DU-145 cells even in the absence of hepatocytes Homo sapiens
