Targeting Oncogenic Transcription Factors: Therapeutic Implications of Endogenous STAT Inhibitors [PDF]
Misregulation of transcription factors, including signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) proteins, leads to inappropriate gene expression patterns that can promote tumor initiation and progression. Under physiologic conditions, STAT signaling is stimulus dependent and tightly regulated by endogenous inhibitors, namely, suppressor of ...

Activation of STAT transcription factors in oncogenic tyrosine kinase signaling
Signal transducers and activators of transcription (STATs) are cytoplasmic transcription factors that translocate to the nucleus and regulate gene expression in response to cytokine and growth factor stimulation. Emerging evidence indicates that STAT signaling is also frequently activated by oncogenes and in tumor cells. Constitutive activation of STAT

Interactions of the Nipah Virus P, V, and W Proteins across the STAT Family of Transcription Factors
The Nipah virus (NiV) phosphoprotein (P) gene encodes four proteins. Three of these—P, V, and W—possess a common N-terminal domain but distinct C termini. These proteins interact with immune modulators. Previous studies demonstrated that P, V, and W bind

Research progress on the role of STAT in the pathogenesis of dermatosis [PDF]
Signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) proteins with transcriptional activity, which are involved in the pathogenesis and formation of skin lesions of atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, skin tumors and other dermatosis, and are related to the

Nuclear export determines the cytokine sensitivity of STAT transcription factors [PDF]
Cytokine-dependent gene activation critically depends upon the tyrosine phosphorylation (activation) of STAT transcription factors at membrane-bound cytokine receptors. The extent of STAT activation and hence the specificity of signaling is primarily determined by structural complementarity between the SH2 domain of the STATs and the tyrosine ...

Suppression of Autoimmune Arthritis by Small Molecule Inhibitors of the JAK/STAT Pathway
A skewed ratio of pro-inflammatory to anti-inflammatory cytokines, elevated growth factor synthesis and T- and B-lymphocyte activation are 3 hallmarks of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) pathology.
