A p38 MAP kinase inhibitor regulates stability of interleukin-1-induced cyclooxygenase-2 mRNA.

The mechanism by which p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) regulates the induction of cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 by interleukin-1 (IL-1) has been investigated in HeLa cells. SB 203580, an inhibitor of p38 MAPK, in the range 0.1-1 microM inhibited IL-1-stimulated PGE2 (but not arachidonic acid) r...
