Conclusion: Stroke is a complex disease caused by genetic and environmental factors, and its etiological mechanism has not been fully clarified yet, which brings great challenges to its effective prevention and treatment. MAPK signaling pathway regulates gene expression of eukaryotic cells and basic cellular processes such as cell proliferation, differentiation, migration, metabolism and apoptosis, which are considered as therapeutic targets for many diseases. Up to now, mounting evidence has shown that MAPK signaling pathway is involved in the pathogenesis and development of ischemic stroke. However, the upstream kinase and downstream kinase of MAPK signaling pathway are complex and the influencing factors are numerous, the exact role of MAPK signaling pathway in the pathogenesis of ischemic stroke has not been fully elucidated. MAPK signaling molecules in different cell types in the brain respond variously after stroke injury, therefore, the present review article is committed to summarizing the pathological process of different cell types participating in stroke, discussed the mechanism of MAPK participating in stroke. We further elucidated that MAPK signaling pathway molecules can be used as therapeutic targets for stroke, thus promoting the prevention and treatment of stroke.

AbstractAcute lung injury (ALI), which could be induced by multiple factors such as lipopolysaccharide (LPS), refer to clinical symptoms of acute respiratory failure, commonly with high morbidity and mortality. Reportedly, active ingredients from green tea have anti-inflammatory and anticancer properties, including epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG). In the present study, protein kinase C alpha (PRKCA) is involved in EGCG protection against LPS-induced inflammation and ALI. EGCG treatment attenuated LPS-stimulated ALI in mice as manifested as improved lung injury scores, decreased total cell amounts, neutrophil amounts and macrophage amounts, inhibited the activity of MPO, decreased wet-to-dry weight ratio of lung tissues, and inhibited release of inflammatory cytokines TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6. PRKCA mRNA and protein expression showed to be dramatically decreased by LPS treatment while reversed by EGCG treatment. Within LPS-stimulated ALI mice, PRKCA silencing further aggravated, while PRKCA overexpression attenuated LPS-stimulated inflammation and ALI through MAPK signaling pathway. PRKCA silencing attenuated EGCG protection. Within LPS-induced RAW 264.7 macrophages, EGCG could induce PRKCA expression. Single EGCG treatment or Lv-PRKCA infection attenuated LPS-induced increases in inflammatory factors; PRKCA silencing could reverse the suppressive effects of EGCG upon LPS-stimulated inflammatory factor release. In conclusion, EGCG pretreatment inhibits LPS-induced ALI in mice. The protective mechanism might be associated with the inhibitory effects of PRKCA on proinflammatory cytokine release via macrophages and MAPK signaling pathway.

Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR-2) regulates the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway and plays an important role in angiogenesis. Bu Shen Zhu Yun decoction (BSZYD) can improve endometrial receptivity and embryo implantation rates in patients undergoing in vitro fertilization. However, whether BSZYD improves endometrial receptivity via angiogenesis remains unclear. Here, we investigated the effects of BSZYD on the proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis of human endometrial microvascular endothelial cells (HEMECs) and found that BSZYD upregulated the expression of cyclin D1, matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9), and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in HEMECs. Cell Counting Kit 8 assay, scratch-wound assay, and Tube Formation Assay results showed that BSZYD promoted the proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis of HEMECs. Western blot analysis results revealed the activation of the MAPK signaling pathway by BSZYD through the upregulation of VEGF and VEGFR-2 expression. Together, these findings highlight the novel mechanism underlying BSZYD-mediated improvement in endometrial receptivity through the MAPK signaling pathway.
