{"type": "root", "children": [{"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nA survey of the recent literature highlights extensive roles for the stress‐activated c–Jun N–terminal kinase (JNK) signaling cascade in diverse pathophysiological processes including obesity–associated insulin resistance, inflammation, cell survival and death, metabolic dysfunction, and even neuronal regulation. Several studies report that elevated JNK activity in adipose tissue and liver underlies insulin resistance and pro–inflammatory cytokine secretion in obesity and type 2 diabetes."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_fs", "start_ref": "1", "end_ref": "7"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n\n"}, {"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nAdditional investigations have detailed how JNK regulates cell fate and inflammatory signaling in contexts ranging from sepsis and neuropathic pain to hepatic tumorigenesis, axonal degeneration, and dendritic morphogenesis.
