    enzyme involved in cellular stress and inflammation responses

    p38 MAPK, or p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase, is an enzyme that plays a crucial role in cellular responses to stress and inflammation. It is part of a signaling pathway that helps cells react to various external stimuli, such as UV radiation, heat shock, and cytokines, by regulating the expression of specific genes involved in inflammation, cell differentiation, and apoptosis (programmed cell death). This pathway is significant in various biological processes and diseases, including cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and inflammatory conditions.
