1 Prostaglandin E2 activates mitogen-activated protein kinase/Erk pathway signaling and cell proliferation in non-small cell lung cancer cells in an epidermal growth factor receptor-independent manner. Dinoprostone mitogen-activated protein kinase 1 Homo sapiens
2 Previous reports have linked the COX-2 product prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) to the abnormal activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase/Erk kinase pathway. Dinoprostone mitogen-activated protein kinase 1 Homo sapiens
3 Previous reports have linked the COX-2 product prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) to the abnormal activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase/Erk kinase pathway. Dinoprostone mitogen-activated protein kinase 1 Homo sapiens
4 Here we show that PGE2 is able to rapidly stimulate Erk phosphorylation in a subset of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell lines. Dinoprostone mitogen-activated protein kinase 1 Homo sapiens
5 Activation of the Erk pathway by PGE2 was also resistant to src kinase inhibitors but sensitive to the protein kinase C inhibition. Dinoprostone mitogen-activated protein kinase 1 Homo sapiens
6 Selective inhibition of EP receptors revealed the possible involvement of Ca2+-dependent signaling in PGE2-mediated activation of Erk. Dinoprostone mitogen-activated protein kinase 1 Homo sapiens
7 Our data indicate the presence of an EGFR-independent activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase/Erk pathway by PGE2 in NSCLC cells. Dinoprostone mitogen-activated protein kinase 1 Homo sapiens
