Abstract:
A Review The diseases caused by endotoxin have seriously affected human health. Previous studies have shown that p38 MAPK pathway is involved in the intracellular signal transduction induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS), which plays an important role in the activation of inflammation-related cells to release inflammation mediator. Recently there have been some progresses in the isoforms distribution, substrate, molecular mechanism of regulating the release of inflammatory mediators, cellular specific activation and levels of p38 MAPK.
