General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction inhibition of the enzyme markedly augments cell proliferation and differentiation, suppresses apoptosis and autophagy, and reverses the anti-fibrotic effects of a p38 MAPK inhibitor. Enzyme inhibition induces resistance to apoptosis in MRC-5 cells treated with transforming growth factor beta 1 Homo sapiens
physiological function the enzyme acts downstream of p38 MAPK to regulate proliferation, apoptosis and autophagy in human lung fibroblasts. The enzyme might inhibit transforming growth factor beta 1-induced NHLF proliferation and differentiation and activates normal lung fibroblast cell apoptosis and autophagy through p38 MAPK signaling, which might ameliorate lung fibroblast-to-myofibroblast differentiation Homo sapiens
