The signaling pathways leading to cellular protection or cell death following exposure to heavy metals have not been fully clarified. Mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs), i.e., extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase (ERK), c-Jun NH_2-terminal kinase (JNK) and p38 MAPK transmit extracellular signals into the nucleus, and have been shown to participate in a diverse array of cellular functions such as cell growth, differentiation and apoptosis. Treatment with cadmium, inorganic mercury or tributyltin can activate ERK, JNK and p38 MAPK, and induces the expression of c-fos and c-jun genes prior to the development of apoptosis. However, the members of the MAPK family appear to be differentially activated depending on the heavy metal and the cell type exposed. Consequently, various cellular responses may be caused by the distinct pattern of MAPKs activation. MAPKs may be one of the important cellular signal transduction pathways affected by various environmental pollutants, including heavy metals.
