1 Ionomycin causes activation of p38 and p42/44 mitogen-activated protein kinases in human neutrophils. Ionomycin mitogen-activated protein kinase 14 Homo sapiens
2 Dual phosphorylation of p38 MAP kinase and phosphorylation of its substrate activating transcription factor-2 were detected at ionomycin concentrations that prime or activate the PMN oxidase, while dual phosphorylation of p42/44 MAP kinase and phosphorylation of its substrate Elk-1 were elicited at 0.2-2 microM. Ionomycin mitogen-activated protein kinase 14 Homo sapiens
3 SB-203580, a p38 MAP kinase antagonist, inhibited ionomycin-induced activation of the oxidase (68 +/- 8%, P < 0.05) and tyrosine phosphorylation of 105- and 72-kDa proteins; conversely, PD-98059, an inhibitor of MAP/extracellular signal-related kinase 1, had no effect. Ionomycin mitogen-activated protein kinase 14 Homo sapiens
4 Chelation of cytosolic but not extracellular Ca2+ completely inhibited ionomycin activation of p38 MAP kinase, whereas chelation of extracellular Ca2+ abrogated activation of p42/44 MAP kinase. Ionomycin mitogen-activated protein kinase 14 Homo sapiens
