Abstract excerpt
It is unknown whether base excision DNA repair (BER) proteins interact with mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) under oxidation. Here, we explored roles of BER proteins in signaling transduction involving MAPK during hyperoxia. We demonstrated that ERK1/2 phosphorylation in A549 cells was increased in 95% O(2). p38 activity in A549 cells was also increased by exposure to 95% O(2). To evaluate regulatory...
