Overview:
p38β is a member of the p38 MAP kinase family and is activated by both proinflammatory cytokines and environmental stress (1). The p38β is activated through its phosphorylation by MAP kinase kinases (MKKs), preferably by MKK6. Transcription factor ATF2/CREB2 has been shown to be a substrate of this kinase (2). Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been observed.

抗人球蛋白试验,又称Coombs’试验,是诊断自身免疫性溶血性贫血(AIHA)的重要依据。
正常人直接与间接试验均为阴性,Coombs’试验阴性有时并不能排除AIHA
