Description

MAPK signal transduction pathways play crucial roles in the radiation responses of cells. Four MAPK pathways, ERK, JNK, P38 MAPK and big MAPK pathway induce different effects in the radiation exposed cells. Their corresponding regulations foreordain the cells after exposure. This review describes these four MAPK pathways in radiation responses and discusses their functions in radiation responses respectively. (authors)
