1 In this report, we show that treatment of HepG2 cells with endosulfan significantly increased oxidative stress-responsive transcription via AP-1 activation. Endosulfan Jun proto-oncogene, AP-1 transcription factor subunit Homo sapiens
2 Endosulfan exposure also caused an increase in c-Jun phosphorylation. Endosulfan Jun proto-oncogene, AP-1 transcription factor subunit Homo sapiens
3 These results suggest a model for endosulfan toxicity in which endosulfan increases ERK1/2 and p38 activities and these activated MAPKs then increase c-Jun phosphorylation. Endosulfan Jun proto-oncogene, AP-1 transcription factor subunit Homo sapiens
