EGF activates ERK. 8 / 8

""Roflumilast also inhibited the EGF induced expression of phosphotyrosine proteins, EGF receptor, and phospho-p38- and p44/42-MAPK measured by Western blot analysis in A549 cells""

"The treatment of NCI-N87 cells with EGF resulted in increases in phosphorylation of Erk1/2, Akt, and P38. Blockade of the Erk, phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase/Akt, or P38 pathways in this cell line"

"MVP overexpression downregulates EGF-dependent ERK activation in Src overexpressing cells. "

"We previously reported a relationship between the ambivalent activity of EGF and the p42-mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase activity. Thus, 10(-12) M EGF induced a sustained MAP kinase activation, whereas 10(-9) M EGF led to a sharp, but transitory, activation. The MAP kinases are activated by MAP kinase kinases (MEK1 and MEK2)."

"EGF also prevented H2O2-induced disruption of the actin cytoskeleton and the dissociation of occludin and ZO-1 from the actin-rich detergent-insoluble fractions. MEK (MAPK/ERK kinase, where ERK stands for extracellular signal related kinase) inhibitors, PD98059 and U0126, completely blocked these protective effects of EGF on TJs. EGF rapidly increased the levels of phosphorylated MEK (p-MEK) in detergent-soluble fractions and phosphorylated ERK (p-ERK) in detergent-insoluble fractions. p-ERK was colocalized and co-immunoprecipitated with occludin. "

"senescence-like growth arrest was accompanied by impaired activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways, namely, extracellular-regulated protein kinase, c-jun N-terminal kinase and p38 MAPK, in response to epidermal growth factor (EGF) and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I)"

"The SHP2 PTPase activity is required for activation of the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) subfamily of mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase by EGF. "

"We showed that [D-Lys6]GnRH-II reduces EGF-induced auto-tyrosine-phosphorylation of EGF-receptors via activation of a PTP and that EGF-induced activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase was blocked in cells treated with [D-Lys6]GnRH-II."
