Abstract excerpt
JNK has been suggested to be proapoptotic, antiapoptotic, or have no role in apoptosis depending on the cell type and stimulus used. The precise mechanism of JNK action, under conditions when it promotes cell survival, is not entirely clear. Here, we report that JNK is required for IL-3-mediated cell survival through phosphorylation and inactivation of the proapoptotic Bcl-2 family protein BAD. IL-3...
