Application

FR180204 has been used as ERK inhibitor:
  • to block extracellular-signal-regulated kinase (ERK) in order to validate whether homeobox B7 (HOXB7) regulates the migration and proliferation process via AKT/mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) signaling
  • of extracellular-signal-regulated kinase (ERK) to study the effects of signaling pathway inhibitors on differentiation and cell traction stress
  • to determine if phosphorylation of this signaling protein is essential for mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC) derived therapeutic efficacy

Biochem/physiol Actions

FR180204 is a potent, cell-permeable, ATP-competitive inhibitor of ERK1 and ERK2 (mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)/extracellular-signal-regulated kinases (ERK) 1/2).
It can be used to study the roles of ERK as well as for drug development.

The phosphorylation cascade in the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) pathway is a versatile reaction network motif that can potentially act as a switch, oscillator or memory. Nevertheless, there is accumulating evidence that the phosphorylation response is mostly linear to extracellular

The anti-proliferative activity of dietary flavonoid fisetin has been validated in various cancer models. Establishing its precise mechanism of action has proved somewhat challenging given the multiplicity of its targets. We demonstrated that YB-1 promotes epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and its inhibition

Cytokines of the transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) superfamily exert effects on proliferation, apoptosis and differentiation in various cell types. Cancer cells frequently acquire resistance to the anti-proliferative signals of TGF-β, which can be due to mutations in proteins of

Articles

The mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family consists of both stress activated (SAPK) and mitogen-activated (MAPK) protein kinases. They form a network of signal transduction cascades that mediate cellular responses to a diverse range of stimuli, including growth factors, chemical or osmotic stress, irradiation, bacterial infection and proinflammatory cytokines.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
