General description

A highly specific, cell-permeable inhibitor of p38 kinase (IC50 = 34 nM in vitro, 600 nM in cells). Also known as reactivating kinase (RK) and CSBP (cytokine synthesis anti-inflammatory drug binding protein). Does not significantly inhibit JNK or p42 MAP kinase even at 100 µM. Inhibits IL-1 and TNF-α production from LPS-stimulated human monocytes and the human monocyte cell line THP-1 (IC50 = 50-100 nM). SB 203580 has also been shown to be an effective inhibitor of inflammatory cytokine production in vivo in both mice and rats.

In previous studies, we determined an association between increased serum and articular cartilage levels of CCL2 with osteoarthritis (OA) progression, cartilage damage and increased MMP13 in cartilage. Here we analyzed CCL2 downstream signaling mediators that lead to gene expression of

Osteoblast cells synthesize collagen-rich ECM (extracellular matrix) in response to various environmental cues, but little is known about ECM-dependent variations in phosphorylation patterns. Using MC3T3 E1 osteoblast-like cells and mouse whole-genome microarrays, we investigated molecular signalling affected by collagen-based ECMs.
