STAT proteins: From normal control of cellular events to tumorigenesis
31 Jul 2003
Abstract excerpt
Signal transducers and activators of transcription (STAT) proteins comprise a family of transcription factors latent in the cytoplasm that participate in normal cellular events, such as differentiation, proliferation, cell survival, apoptosis, and angiogenesis following cytokine, growth factor, and hormone signaling.
