p38 MAPK alpha (pT180/pY182) + total p38 MAPK alpha ELISA Kit is a Semi-quantitative ELISA kit for the measurement of p38 MAPK alpha (pT180/pY182) + total p38 MAPK alpha in Mouse, Human in Cell Lysate samples.
ab126453 is a very rapid, convenient and sensitive assay kit that can monitor the activation or function of important biological pathways in cell lysates. By determining phosphorylated p38 alpha protein in your experimental model system, you can verify pathway activation in your cell lysates. You can simultaneously measure numerous different cell lysates without spending excess time and effort in performing a Western Blot analysis.
This Sandwich ELISA kit is an in vitro enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the measurement of human phospho-p38 alpha (Thr180/Tyr182) and total p38 alpha (help normalize the results of phospho-p38 alpha from different cell lysate being compared). An anti-p38 alpha (Thr180/Tyr182) (half plate, red marker on left side) and anti-total p38 alpha antibody (half plate, black marker on right side) has been coated onto a 96-well plate. Samples are pipetted into the wells and phosphorylated (left side) and total (right side) p38 alpha present in a sample is bound to the wells by the immobilized antibody. The wells are washed and rabbit anti p38 alpha is used to detect phosphorylated or total p38 alpha. After washing away unbound antibody, HRP-conjugated anti-rabbit IgG is pipetted to the wells. The wells are again washed, a TMB substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of p38 alpha (Thr180/Tyr182) or total p38 alpha bound. The Stop Solution changes the color from blue to yellow, and the intensity of the color is measured at 450 nm.

P38 alpha also known as MAPK14 is a significant member of the MAP kinase family involved in cellular response to stress signals. This protein has a molecular mass of about 38 kDa and is expressed in various tissues throughout the body. p38 alpha plays an important role in the signal transduction pathways that regulate inflammatory responses and cell differentiation. Its activity is modulated by multiple upstream kinases leading to cell-specific effects that are important for organismal homeostasis.
P38 alpha MAPK14 is a part of a larger mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) complex where it serves to mediate signals from external stressors to the appropriate cellular processes. It is particularly active in its roles involving inflammation and apoptosis regulation. The protein interacts with other members of the MAPK family and additional proteins such as TAB1 to conduct these biological signals efficiently.
P38 alpha integrates into the p38 MAPK pathway and the NF-kB signaling pathway which are essential for managing cellular stress responses and inflammatory reactions. It closely interacts with other proteins like MKK3 and MKK6 which are directly upstream regulators phosphorylating and activating p38 MAPK14. This intricate connection allows p38 alpha to execute precise regulation within cellular environments.
P38 alpha MAPK14 is prominently associated with inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and cardiovascular disorders. In these conditions its aberrant activation or expression can lead to pathological inflammation and tissue damage. Additionally p38 alpha’s connection with TNF-alpha in inflammation highlights its relevance in therapeutic targets for related disorders reflecting the significance of its modulation to potentially mitigate disease progression.
