Activation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 correlates with cell proliferation and renal injury in human glomerulonephritis
14 Jun 2008
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) 3 plays an important role in the regulation of cell proliferation. However, the mechanism of STAT3 activation in human glomerulonephritis is unclear. METHODS: STAT3 activation was determined using immunohistochemistry for phosphorylated STAT3 (p-STAT3) in normal human kidney and various types of glomerulonephritis. We also identified the cell...
