p38γ and p38δ: From Spectators to Key Physiological Players

Although the physiological roles of p38γ and p38δ signalling pathways are largely unknown, new genetic and pharmacological tools are providing groundbreaking information on the function of these two stress-activated protein kinases. Recent studies show the importance of p38γ and p38δ in the regulation of processes as diverse as cytokine production, protein synthesis, exocytosis, cell migration, gene expression, and neuron activity, which have an acute impact on the development of pathologies related to inflammation, diabetes, neurodegeneration, and cancer. These recent breakthroughs are resolving some of the questions that have long been asked regarding the function of p38γ and p38δ in biology and pathology.
