Activation of p38 MAPK During Porcine Oocyte Maturation1
1 Aug 2004
Abstract excerpt
The p38 MAPK is a member of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family that participates in a signaling cascade in response to cytokines and stress in somatic cells. The present study was designed to investigate the expression and possible function of p38 MAPK in porcine oocytes during maturation. In immunoblots, p38 MAPK was detected in oocytes and cumulus cells. Its activity was determined during oocyte...
