Gas6 Induces Mesangial Cell Proliferation via Latent Transcription Factor STAT3 [PDF]
Mesangial cell proliferation is essential for the pathogenesis and progression of glomerular disease. Previously, we showed that Gas6 plays a pivotal role in mesangial cell proliferation in vitro and in vivo. In the present study, we identified downstream targets of Gas6 signaling to examine the role in mesangial cell proliferation in vitro and in vivo.

TYK2-induced phosphorylation of Y640 suppresses STAT3 transcriptional activity [PDF]
STAT3 is a pleiotropic transcription factor involved in homeostatic and host defense processes in the human body. It is activated by numerous cytokines and growth factors and generates a series of cellular effects.

Chaperonin Containing Tailless complex polypeptide 1 (CCT) is an essential molecular chaperone required for the folding of the abundant proteins actin and tubulin. The CCT oligomer also folds a range of other proteins and participates in non-folding activities such as providing assembly support for complexes of the von Hippel Lindau tumor suppressor ...

Activation of the STAT3/Acute Phase Response Factor Transcription Factor by Interleukin-5 [PDF]
The receptor for interleukin-5 (IL-5R) is composed of a unique alpha chain (IL-5R alpha) expressed on eosinophils and basophils, associated with a beta c subunit, which is shared by the receptors for IL-3 and granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor. One of the molecular events activated via the IL-5R is the JAK/STAT signaling pathway.

Direct Upregulation of STAT3 by MicroRNA-551b-3p Deregulates Growth and Metastasis of Ovarian Cancer
Summary: 3q26.2 amplification in high-grade serous ovarian cancer leads to increased expression of mature microRNA miR551b-3p, which is associated with poor clinical outcome.

Targeting STAT3 in Cancer with Nucleotide Therapeutics. [PDF]
Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) plays a critical role in promoting the proliferation and survival of tumor cells. As a ubiquitously-expressed transcription factor, STAT3 has commonly been considered an "undruggable" target for ...

Activation of Acute Phase Response Factor (APRF)/Stat3 Transcription Factor by Growth Hormone [PDF]
The mechanism by which the binding of growth hormone (GH) to its cell surface receptor elicits changes in gene transcription are largely unknown. The transcription factor Stat1/p91 has been shown to be activated by GH. Here we show that acute phase response factor or Stat3 f1p4an antigenically related protein), is also activated by GH.
