Disease relevance of Stat1

  • These results, favor the notion that ejaculation-induced prolactin secretion activates its prostate receptors resulting in Stat-1 and Stat-3 nuclear translocation, event likely to be associated to the so-called benign prostate hyperplasia [1].
  • Thus, we examined the role of the Ras-MAPK pathway in Stat1 activation and subsequent iNOS induction in C6 glioma cells [2].
  • Ischemia caused a strong induction of Stat1 in the ipsilateral cortex after 4, 7 and 15 days, but not at 6 or 24 h [3].
  • These results show that Stat1 is normally expressed in the postnatal and adult rat brain and is induced under brain infarction [3].
  • In this study, activation of the Jak/Stat signaling pathway was followed upon growth hormone (GH) stimulation, using the rat osteosarcoma cell-line UMR-106.01 that expresses high affinity GH receptors [4].
 

High impact information on Stat1

  • Because Stat factors are known to be inactivated by protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPase), we showed that a PTPase is able to eliminate the DNA binding of hepatic Stat3.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)[5]
  • Functional prolactin receptor signaling was further demonstrated in the activation of JAK2 and phosphorylation activation of the transcription factors Stat1, -3, and -5a [6].
  • However, we discovered a profound difference in the expression of SOCS-1, an inhibitor of the Jak/Stat pathway [7].
  • The PRL response element (PRLRE) binds PRL-activated (tyrosine-phosphorylated) signal transducers and activators of transcription (Stat 5b and Stat 5a) [8].
  • Cotransfection with a vector expressing a dominant negative, truncated form of Stat 5b abolished PRL-induced activation of a2M transgenes [8].

Associations of Stat1 with chemical compounds

 

Physical interactions of Stat1

  • The 92 kD Stat factor binding at the IL-6 RE probably also functions as a transcription factor in the cytokine-induced activation of the alpha 2M gene [16].
 

Regulatory relationships of Stat1

  • We also investigated EGF-induced activation of Stat (signal transducers and activators of transcription) proteins as well as the possible interactions of this signaling pathway with the p38 and p42/44 MAP kinases cascades [17].
 

Other interactions of Stat1

  • Prolactin receptors as members of the cytokine-hematopoietin receptor superfamily, are linked to Stat activation [1].
  • Stat1 was phosphorylated on tyrosine (Tyr)-701 after exposure to H(2)O(2), INF-gamma or IL-6 but not IL-10 [10].
  • Falcarindiol also abrogated the tyrosine phoshorylation of JAK2 by 82.3% at 10 min.The present study demonstrates that falcarindiol attenuated the activation of IKK and JAK contributing to the blockade of activation of NF-kappaB and Stat1, thereby leading to the suppression of iNOS expression [14].
  • Recent studies have reported that MAPK is responsible for serine phosphorylation of Stat1 which is required for Stat1's DNA binding and maximal transcriptional activity [2].
  • Using retroviral luciferase reporters, we found that NE also activated both signal transducers and activators of transcription (Stat) and gamma-interferon-activated sequence-mediated transcriptional responses, with maximal effects similar to those caused by interleukin-6 (IL-6) [15].
